The luminescence of Kr-Xe, Ar-Kr, and Ar-Xe mixtures was studied in the spectral range 300–970 nm when excited by 6Li (n, α)3 H nuclear reaction products in the core of a nuclear reactor. Lithium was deposited on walls of experimental cell in the form of a capillary-porous structure, which made it possible to measure up to a temperature of 730 K. The temperature dependence of the radiation intensity of noble gas atoms, alkali metals, and heteronuclear ionic noble gas molecules was studied. Also, as in the case of single-component gases, the appearance of lithium lines and impurities of sodium and potassium is associated with vaporization during the release of nuclear reaction products from the lithium layer. The excitation of lithium atoms occurs mainly as a result of the Penning process of lithium atoms on noble gas atoms in the 1s states and subsequent ion-molecular reactions. Simultaneous radiation at transitions of atoms of noble gases and lithium, heteronuclear ion molecules of noble gases allows us to increase the efficiency of direct conversion of nuclear energy into light.

Heterogeneous perturbations 2E+ ~ 2Π of largely different magnitudes are observed with high resolution in the vacuum-ultraviolet absorption and in the infrared emission spectrum of the NO molecule. The rotational interactions between 2Σ+ Rydberg states and levels of the B2Π non-Rydberg state are shown to be "configurationally forbidden", but produced by the configuration interaction between the non-Rydberg levels and 2Π Rydberg states. The latter together with the 2Σ+ Rydberg states form p complexes. In this way the interactions display the l uncoupling in the complexes; they can be evaluated theoretically and can be analyzed fully. The cases of the strong interactions D2Σ+(v = 3) ~ B2Π(v = 16)and D2Σ+(v = 5) ~ B2Π(v = 21) and of the weaker D2Σ+(v = 1) ~ B2Π(v = 11), all three observed as perturbations in ε bands crossing 3 bands, are discussed in detail. It is further shown that perturbations between γ bands and β bands as well as perturbations between analogous bands of higher principal quantum number are absent, and thus the assignment of the A2Σ+ and E2Σ+ states to the s Rydberg series is confirmed.

When atomic plus molecular hydrogen coming from a Wood's discharge tube are mixed with molecular chlorine, infrared emission is observed (1). At low reagent pressures, ~10−2 mm Hg, this emission can be related to the relative rate of the reaction H + Cl2 → HCl†ν + Cl proceeding to form HCl in vibrationally excited states ν = 1–6, of the ground electronic state. In the present work this system has been investigated for the first time at ~100 × the reagent pressure (~1 mm Hg). The reaction was shown to proceed by a chain mechanism. The translational–rotational temperature was 1300 ± 100 °K under the experimental conditions normally used. The vibrational distribution was notable for the presence of vibrators in levels ν = 7 and 8, which are respectively 4 and 10 kcal higher in energy than the exothermicity of the H + Cl2 reaction. The population in these levels appeared to be related to that in the levels with [Formula: see text]; it was proposed that vibrational–vibrational exchange among these lower levels was responsible for populating the higher ones. A simple model yielded a collision efficiency for HCl†ν=1 + HCl†ν=6 → HCl†ν=7 + HCl†ν=0, of Z1,6t = 6 × 103 collisions per transfer. Addition of HCl to the reaction mixture brought about a redistribution among vibrationally excited states indicative of a fast vibrational transfer, HClν=0 + HCl†ν=2 → 2 HCl†ν=1.At reduced pressure of HCl† the stationary-state distribution among higher vibrational states approximated closely to that observed at 10−2 mm Hg total pressure (where collisional deactivation is insignificant), suggesting that collisional deactivation was not of major importance even at the pressure used in the present work. In order to account for the high translational–rotational temperature, in the absence of substantial vibrational deactivation, it was necessary to suppose that the greater part of the energy liberated by the reaction H + Cl2 went directly into translational and rotational motion of the products.
