This communication reports the formation of KrX and XeX (X = F, Cl, Br) from the reaction of the (/sup 3/P/sub 1/) resonance states with halogen donors. The low pressure XeX and KrX emission spectra from these reactions are compared to those from the (/sup 3/P/sub 2/) metastable atom reactions. Relative rate constants for the formation of XeCl B and C states are estimated for a series of chlorinated reagants. From the pressure dependence of the XeCl and XeF B/C ratio, transfer rate constants are assigned for helium, neon, and argon bath gases. 17 references, 2 figures.
