Abstract

AbstractSupersonic beams of oxygen, nitrogen, and chlorine atoms and of metastable oxygen and nitrogen molecules produced from a high‐pressure radio‐frequency discharge beam source have been characterized by coupling velocity selection with magnetic analysis in the transmission mode. The present work leads to the determination of the relative populations of the electronic states of the species in the produced beams, showing that estimates of the populations from plasma temperatures or final translational temperatures could bring on incorrect conclusions.
