The gamma radiolysis of carbon monoxide in the presence of the rare gases (Ar, Kr and Xe) has been studied with and without the application of an electric field. The results showed that energy transfer producing excited species is the important phenomen. Specifically, excited CO molecules will react with other CO molecules producing carbon dioxide and carbon suboxide polymer.

Electron thermalization in X irradiated liquid CO is truncated by electron capture to form an anion, as it is in liquid N2. The thermalization distance distribution in these two liquids is a modified exponential, rather than the modified Gaussian obtained in liquid hydrocarbons where electron capture does not occur. The density normalized distance parameter bEPd in CO was constant, 2.8 × 10−6 kg/m2, at densities [Formula: see text], but increased somewhat at lower densities, reaching 3.3 × 10−6 kg/m2 at d/dc = 1.4. The thermalization distances in CO are about two thirds those in N2 at the same density. Electrons are captured more readily by CO than by N2.
