Abstract
Free radicals can be produced in the gas phase and then condensed together with the molecules of an inert gas; they can also be generated and trapped in isolated sites in rigid solids. IR and ESR spectra of trapped radicals provide information concerning their structure and chemical properties. The techniques employed for producing and studying radicals are reviewed and a number of recent IR and ESR investigations of trapped radicals are discussed. The last part of the article deals exclusively with the applications of the rotating cryostat to the study of the ESR spectra and reactions of trapped radicals at low temperatures.Keywords
