Abstract :
We report experiments conducted in optically excited V–V up-pumped pure CO in order to highlight CO2 production. The infrared optical emission of the CO first overtone vibrational transitions and, for the first time, of a few CO2 vibrational transitions were recorded as well as the intensity of the (0–0) band of the Swan system (d3Πg–a3Πu) of the C2 molecule. This allows us to discuss the vibration enhanced chemical reactions leading to CO2 formation.
