title: Dissociative recombination study of N(3) (+): cross section and branching fraction measurements.
abstract: We report an investigation into the dissociative recombination of the azide radical cation, N(3) (+). The reaction rate constant has been measured to be 6.47 x 10(-7) cm(3) s(-1) at room temperature. This value is smaller than those reported earlier for the ion-electron neutralization of N(3) (+) at nitrogen atmospheric pressure. A strong propensity to dissociate through the N(2)+N channel has been observed.
