QUENCHING OF EXCITED ATOMS BY COLLISIONS WITH STABLE MOLECULES

The authors are concerned with relatively simple semi-empirical models for quenching of excited atoms by stable molecules, i.e. the transfer of electronic energy into vibrational and translational degrees of freedom. The most notable example is the quenching for Na(33P) to the ground state by N 2. T...
