Abstract
The kinetics of ignition of O2-O3 mixtures upon the excitation of O3 molecules by laser radiation with a wavelength #x03BB;I of 9.695 µm is considered. The stimulation of asymmetrical vibrations of O3 molecules was shown to produce more efficient dissociation of O3 molecules, faster heating of the mixture, and, as a consequence, a decrease in the induction time and ignition temperature. Even when the energy of radiation applied to the gas is low (E in ≈ 0.15 J/cm2), the ignition temperature of pure ozone can be reduced from 520 to 300 K at a pressure of 103 Pa.
