Reactions leading to the formation of atomic phosphorus

Conclusions By resonance fluorescence in a jet at 300–670°K, the rate constants of the reactions of atomic hydrogen with phosphorus trichloride and P₄, are determined. In the products of these reactions, atomic phosphorus is registered in concentrations comparable with the concentrations of expended hydrogen atoms.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 22–25, January, 1982.
