Abstract
A detailed compilation of rate data for inelastic collision processes involving the homonuclear and heteronuclear diatomic halogen molecules is presented. The literature has been surveyed through April 1983. Processes that are considered include exchange of energy between electronic, vibrational, rotational and translational degrees of freedom, electronic quenching, dephasing, depolarization, pressure broadening, and spontaneous radiation. Collision partners include rare-gas atoms, halogen and other diatomic molecules, and polyatomic species; a few measurements in liquids and cryogenic matrices are also included. Each data entry includes collision partner, temperature, method of measurement, and an error estimate where available. While a large mass of data is available for these systems, there still exist sizable gaps in our knowledge concerning these processes, particularly for the interhalogen species.
