Abstract

The thermodynamic distribution of the vibrational states of ozone coupled with anharmonic predissociation produces an unusual isotopomeric pattern of oxygen molecules. The model presented here explains the experimental data obtained from the electric discharge of oxygen gas to produce ozone condensed on a quartz at 77K.
