Abstract
Dissociative excitation of odd sextet levels of the cobalt atom in collisions of electrons with cobalt dibromide molecules was experimentally studied. At an energy of incident electrons of 100 eV, 53 dissociative excitation cross sections were measured; in five cases, there were blends. In the electron energy range of 0–100 eV, the optical excitation functions for transitions from 10 sextet levels of CoI were determined. The main feature of the studied levels was their long lifetime, because of which some of the excited atoms leave the field of view of the optical system without any emission of radiation.
