Abstract
The treatment of pressure effects on bimolecular recombinations and unimolecular dissociations is discussed. The analysis of recombination and dissociation reactions is made by showing how the nonequilibrium energy (E) and angular momentum (J)-dependent steady-state population distribution functions for the two reactions are related to each other and to the equilibrium population distribution function at the given E and J. As a special case a strong collision model is then used for the collisional rotational angular momentum transfer, and a ladder model for the collisional energy transfer. An analytical result is obtained for states below the dissociation threshold. The extension to recombinations with two exit channels is described, for application to ozone formation and isotopic effects.
