ResumoRate constants Kν,ν−1ν,ν for vibrational deactivation of H2 in highly excited vibrational states have been calculated using a semiclassical dynamical model. The results show a strong increase of K1,00,0 as well as Kν,ν−1ν,ν as a function of the vibrational quantum number ν. The dependence of K1,0ν,ν on ν could open new perspectives in non-equilibrium vibrational kinetics of H2.
