Spectrum and Primary Process

The values of the heat of formation of ozone, 34.0 kcal., and of the dissociation energy of oxygen, 118.0 kcal., give 

Therefore light of wavelength 11,400 A. or less provides enough energy for the dissociation of ozone. Absorption coefficients in the ultraviolet 

Some experimental evidence that collisional deactivation of 03 may occur has been presented (90). However, Benson (12) has calculated 

The states of O2 and O would depend on the wavelength. On the assumption that spin conservation is not to be violated, the following regions and possible processes may be considered
