Abstract:Three coupled sets of master equations, representing the equilibration of X, + Y , e 2XY via atoms only, have been solved by the normal-mode technique; the set of 57 simultaneous differential equations describing the H2/D,/2HD system was considered as a suitable trial model. It was found that at times ( t ) in excess of the longest vibrational relaxation time, even though some of the populations in the system appeared highly nonBoltzmann, all the phenomenological rate constants were well-behaved: they were eit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
