Intensity of the H2O2 v6(b) Band at 1266 cm−1.

Abstract

The hydrogen atom radicals (H, OH, HO2 and H2O2) are probably the least understood of the atmospheric trace constituents. An effort is necessary to obtain a more detailed knowledge of the behavior of the hydrogen radicals and their close relative H2O2. The hydrogen gases were proposed as ozone-destructive agents in air long before the discovery of nitrogen oxides as similar agents.
