Kinetic studies for XeF and KrF lasers. Quarterly interim technical report no. 1

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7307725

The goal of this program is to measure both the radiative lifetime and the collisional quenching rate coefficients for the XeF and KrF upper laser levels. Our approach is to excite a fraction of the ground state molecules in a cell using a short-pulse XeF or KrF laser. The ground state molecules will be prepared by flash dissociating a mixture of F/sub 2/ and either Xe or Kr plus a monatomic diluent and then allowing the molecular XeF to come to equilibrium with the free atom densities.
