Dynamics study of the atmospheric reaction involving vibrationally excited O3 with OH

Abstract

We investigate the title atmospheric reaction of highly excited O3 with vibrationally cold OH. Particular attention will be paid to initial vibrational energies of O3 between 9 and 21 kcal mol−1. The calculations employ the quasiclassical trajectory method and the realistic double many-body expansion potential energy surface for HO4(2A). Many aspects of the title process are presented. It is found that it may not be possible to ignore this process when studying the stratospheric ozone budget.
