Relative rate constants for the reaction of O(1D) atoms with fluorocarbons and N2O

TL;DR: In this article, the rate constants for the reaction O( 1 D) + reactant product have been obtained relative to the rate constant for the reactions O(1 D + N 2 O N 2 + O 2, O( 2 D + n 2 O 2 NO ) + N O 2 O NO in competitive experiments, and the values of k 1a /( k 2a + k 2b ) obtained are: CHF 2 Cl 1.6 ± 0.2; CF 2 Cl 2 2.4 ± 1.3; CFCl 3 2.65

Aeronomic chemistry of the stratosphere

TL;DR: In the stratosphere, dissociation of H 2 O, CH 4 and H 2 is brought about mainly by reaction processes with excited oxygen atoms produced by the photodissociation of ozone as mentioned in this paper.

NO, NO2 and HNO3 below 35 km in the atmosphere

TL;DR: Experimental data on NO, NO2 and HNO3 in the atmosphere are reviewed in this paper, where the low abundance of nitric acid in the tropospheric gas phase is emphasized, as well as the high variability of NOx in the low stratosphere and in the Troposphere.
