Radiative lifetimes have been measured for CN (A 2 Pi i v-prime = 2...7). Ground-state radicals formed in the 193 nm photolysis of C2N2 and ClCN were excited to A 2 Pi i v-prime = 2...7 vibrational levels. The decay was monitored by following the fluorescence. Cascading effects were eliminated by working at low pressures and monitoring emission from a single vibrational band. Quenching rates and zero-pressure radiative lifetimes were obtained from Stern-Volmer plots. The lifetimes are significantly lower than previous measurements and theoretical calculations for vibrational states v-prime over 2.
