The validity of various solutions for the vibrational relaxation region in shock-waves, and of the assumptions on which they are based, has been assesed by comparison with an exact solution obtained by numerical integration of the relaxation equation, and also by use of the Rayleigh-line equations. Estimates of errors in the values of the relaxation frequency, determined by means of these solutions, are given.

The detailed structure of the relaxation region in shock waves in oxygen was investigated using Blackman's experimental results. Oxygen was found to display a behaviour similar in many ways to that found previously for carbon dioxide with the relaxation frequency, as defined by the simple relaxation equation, depending on the departure from equilibrium as well as on temperature. The previous results for carbon dioxide were further analysed by means of a separate relaxation equation for each mode.
