I. A study of vibrational relaxation in carbon monoxide by shock-waves and infra-red emission. II. A study of the effect of a resonant transfer of energy on the vibrational relaxation of gas mixtures

I: Pure CO gas was rapidly heated by the passage of a shock wave, and the vibrational relaxation time determined from measurements of the time history of the intensity of the 1st overtone transition at 2.35[microns]. The relaxation time was measured over a temperature range of 1400-3000°K and at pre...
