Abstract
Mass spectrometric techniques have been utilized in conjunction with theoretical methods to detect and characterize new species formed upon ionization of gaseous mixtures containing ozone and an NOx oxide. NO5+ as well as isomeric NO4+ and NO3+ ions have been identified. Moreover, utilization of neutralization reionization mass spectrometry (NRMS) has provided strong evidence for, if not a conclusive demonstration of, the existence of a new NO3 isomer, in addition to the long-known trigonal radical, as a gaseous species with a lifetime in excess of ≈1 μs.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
