The very striking temperature dependence of the dissociative attachment cross sections found experimentally in O 2 has been reproduced by a semi-empirical calculation, assuming a Maxwell distribution of vibrational (v) and rotational (r) states. A recently derived expression for the cross section σ v, r is used, and the final-state potential curve of O 2− is parametrized to fit the experiments. The temperature shift is found to be caused by the effect on excited vibrational states of the rapidly varying" survival probability," a measure of the competition between auto-ionization and dissociation. Byproducts of the calculation are the potential curve for the final dissociating state of O 2−*, together with an estimate of its auto-ionization width Γ a (R), and also the contribution of this state to the total cross section for electron-energy loss to vibrational excitation and dissociation.
