Abstract
was produced by photolysis of ammonia in the vacuum ultraviolet. Deactivation rates of this radical were measured by the quenching of fluorescence in NH3, CH4, H2, N2, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe. An estimate of the lifetime of spontaneous radiative decay of 0.8×10−5 sec is suggested. Application of the results to the dynamics of the Jovian atmosphere is reported.
