Abstract

A kinetics model to describe the behavior of singlet delta O₂ in optically pumped liquid oxygen has been developed and tested against experimental data. The model was developed to study alternative methods of O₂(a¹Δg) production for the Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser (COIL), and has been used in conjunction with experimental data to determine a value for the pooling rate constant in liquid oxygen of 1± 0.5 x 10^-17 cm³molecule^-1s^-1.
