Vibrationally excited oxygen (O‡2) is produced in the atmosphere by ozone photodissociation in the 200–300 nm Hartley band. It has been suggested that photoexcitation of O‡2 in the O2 Schumann–Runge bands will lead to predissociation, and autocatalytic production of O3. The resultant new source of atmospheric O3 could help alleviate current discrepancies between observed and modeled O3 profiles. To evaluate this possibility, we have examined two critical factors—the nascent distribution of O‡2 levels for 248 nm photodissociation, near the peak of the Hartley band, and the rate coefficients for their relaxation by O2 and N2. We find that the distribution extends to v=22, close to the thermodynamic limit, with a peak near v=8. The 300 K quenching rate coefficients have been evaluated using a cascade model, in which it is assumed that relaxation by O2 occurs through single‐quantum vibration–vibration (V–V) and vibration–translation (V–T) steps. By modeling the relaxation from the top of the distribution down...
