“…Advances in the qualitative and quantitative understanding of such postshock phenomena [1][2][3][4] are being driven by the definition of interplanetary missions involving the entry (or reentry) of a spacecraft in a planetary atmosphere. Maneuvers such as planetary aerobraking, aerocapture, or direct entry of a spacecraft inbound from another planet follow hyperbolic trajectories where crossing of the planetary atmosphere occurs at velocities well in excess of 10 km=s.…”

This paper presents the application of the forced harmonic oscillator method to the simulation of state-resolved dissociation processes behind high-temperature shock waves typical of atmospheric reentries. Improvements have been brought to the model, considering a more precise method for the calculation of the different vibrational level energies, therefore increasing the accuracy of the predicted transition probabilities between higher vibrational levels close and above the dissociation limit. The model has been validated against data issued from recent experiments, as well as data issued from semiclassical trajectory calculations for collisions between different species. A good overall agreement is achieved against such other data. A database of reaction rates has been constructed with the purpose of simulating shock-heated nitrogen flows. Dissociation processes behind a shock wave have been simulated for different postshock translational temperatures. At lower temperatures, the well-known ladder-climbing phenomenon is the main dissociation channel behind a shock wave, with dissociation occurring for transitions from the vibrational levels close to the dissociation limit. At higher temperatures, transitions between the different vibrational levels of nitrogen become roughly equiprobable, and the overall range of bound vibrational levels contributes to the dissociation.
