Ozone isotopic composition: an angular effect in scattering processes?
The ratio of the differential scattering cross sections involving distinguishable and indistinguishable isotopes may exhibit non-mass dependent angular variations. A numerical application of this hypotheses to the ozone reaction rates reproduces some of the results observed in laboratory experim...

| Summary: | The ratio of the
differential scattering cross sections involving distinguishable and
indistinguishable isotopes may exhibit non-mass dependent angular variations. A
numerical application of this hypotheses to the ozone reaction rates reproduces
some of the results observed in laboratory experiments. This theory could be
tested through a cross beam experiment where the isotopic composition of the
scattered products is recorded as a function of their scattering angles.<br><br><b>Key words. </b>Atmospheric composition and structure
