Abstract. The first-order perturbation approximation is applied to calculate the rate coefficients of vibrational energy transfer in collisions involving vibrationally excited molecules in the absence of non-adiabatic transitions. The factors of molecular attraction, oscillator frequency change, anharmonicity, 3-dimensionality and quasiclassical motion have been taken into account in the approximation. The analytical expressions presented have been normalized on experimental data of VT-relaxation times in N2 and O2 to obtain the steric factors and the extent of repulsive exchange potentials in collisions N2-N2 and O2-O2. The approach was applied to calculate the rate coefficients of vibrational-vibrational energy transfer in the collisions N2-N2, O2-O2 and N2-O2. It is shown that there is good agreement between our calculations and experimental data for all cases of energy transfer considered.Key words.

The CARS (coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering) technique has been used for the first time to observe directly the vibrational energy transfer between nitrogen N2 (X1Σ, ν = 1, 2) and carbon dioxide. The transfer-rate constants were determined as (1.0 ± 0.1) × 1011 cm3 mol−1 s−1 and (1.7 ± 0.4) × 1011 cm3 mol−1 s−1 for N2(ν = 1) and N2(ν = 2), respectively.
