| 内容記述 | Isotopic fractionation processes in the formation of O3 by discharge (at 20 kV and 3 MHz) of O2 in a fused silica container at 77 K are investigated experimentally, with a focus on the effects of changes in the isotopic abundances in the predischarge O2, the O2 pressure, and the excitation energy on the isotope abundances in the postdischarge O2 and O3. The results are presented in extensive tables and graphs and characterized in detail, and good general agreement is found with data obtained using 60-kHz excitation (Yang and Epstein, 1987). It is shown that O-17 and O-18 enrichment of the residual O2 (when the predischarge gas is enriched) or of the O3 (when atmospheric isotope abundances are used) can occur independently of one another. It is inferred that the rate of anharmonic predissociation of vibrationally hot O3 depends on the symmetry and mass of the O3 molecules. The significance of the present findings for studies of anomalous oxygen isotope abundances in meteorites is indicated. |
