Scientific paper

The published data on the temperature dependence of the radiative combination of atomic oxygen with nitric oxide at pressures near 1 torr is examined. Arguments are advanced to suggest that radiation near the cut-off wavelength (about 3875A) is coming from the unstabilized activated complex, NO2(asterisk). At 4000A a positive activation energy of 1 kcal/mole is deduced. Application of this temperature dependence with the rate coefficient at 5200A is made to airglow measurements in aurora. The deduced NO concentration is about 10 to the 9th per cu cm, in general agreement with that deduced from the measured NO(+)/O2(+) ratio as well as an auroral model prediction.
