A technique is described for measuring the relative intensities of emission from biacetyl vapor in the blue (fluorescence) and in the green (phosphorescence) parts of the spectrum when exciting wave lengths are around 4358 and 3650 A., respec-tively. In pure biacetyl at 26 and 42 mm. pressure the integrated ratio of green to blue is 58 (±8): 1. This ratio is unaffected by change in wave length and by the addition of acetone, benzene or methyl chloride. The ratio decreases as the temperature is raised and decreases rapidly to zero upon addition ofoxygen. The state from which phosphorescence occurs must be formed from the electronic-vibration state from which fluorescence occurs by a step which parallels and is inde-pendent of fluorescence. Both rates must apparently be collision independent under the conditions studied. Dissociation must occur from upper vibration levels of the singlet state although the data do not provide conclusions about details of this process. Biacetyl emission inbiacetyl-acetone mixtures irradiated at 3130A.(absorbed mainly bythe acetone) leads at room temperature to a preferential excitation of phosphorescence rather than fluorescence. Thepreviously proposed mechanism can account for these facts.
