Intern at the department of Atmospheric Chemistry
Mc Gill University, Montréal (Canada) :

April 18th - May 30th 2001

Determination of the relative kinetic rates of the gas phase reaction of the chlorine radical with some of the halogeno-compounds present in the atmosphere (CH2Br2, CHBr2Cl, CHBr3, 1 and 2-iodobutane). These rates will be useful for the prediction of the evolution of a system that contains one of the above compounds and any type of chlorine source, which plays an important role in the tropospheric and stratospheric ozone chemistry.

Supervisor : Mrs. Parisa Ariya.
