A combined theoretical and experimental study of sarin (GB) decomposition at high temperatures
- Abstract:
-
Theoretical and experimental results are presented for the pyrolytic decomposition of the nerve agent sarin (GB) in the gas phase. High level quantum chemistry calculations are performed together with a semiclassical transition state theory for describing quantum mechanical tunneling. The experimental and theoretical results for the temperature dependence of the survival times show very good agreement, as does the calculated and measured activation energy for thermal decomposition. The combin...
