I2 dissociation and deactivation rate of vibrationally excited iodine in the medium of oxygen iodine laser

The expressions of effective deactivation rate constants for I2(X,v≥vth) molecules in the medium of oxygen-iodine laser was found. The values of these constants for vth = 30 at collisions iodine molecules with O2 and N2 molecules taking into account the I2 dissociation process was calculated.
