Abstract

The paper discusses the experimental results pointing to the efficient channel of the CO vibrational to the C₂ electronic energy-transfer. The radiation spectra D¹Σ_u - X¹Σ_g , known as Mulliken bands, are investigated and the relation of their kinetics to a vibrational excitation of CO molecules in the He-CO-O₂ plasma is discussed. The rate constant for VE process ( CO(v ≥ 25) + C₂ → CO(v - 25) + C₂(D¹Σ_u) ) is estimated, kVE ~ 10^-14 см³/с.
