Spectroscopy and kinetics of IR laser interaction with atmospheric molecules: Effects of cooling and chaos

Abstract

Synopsis Spectroscopy and kinetics of energy and heat exchange in the mixture CO2-N2-H2O under passing the CO2 laser pulses is studied. To describe the energy exchange and relaxation processes in the CO2.- N2 - H2O mixture, which interacts with a laser pulse, we use the modified 3-mode model of the kinetic processes New data on the resonant absorption relative coefficient α(CO2) for the European mid-latitude atmospheric model are presented. It is also studied a chaotic behaviour of the carbon and nitrogen dioxide concentration time series (Munich & Gdansk reg.) and the low-D chaos effect is found.
