The production of O(1D) from dissociative recombination of O2(+)The results of large scale ab initio calculations of the rates for production of O(1D) by dissociative combination of O2(+) are presented for electron temperatures in the range 100 to 3000 K. A 1-delta-u state is the dominant dissociative route from v = 0 and a 3-sigma-u(-) state is the most important route from v = 1 and v = 2. The calculated total rate for O(1D) production from v = 0 is 2.21(+0.21,-0.24) x 10(-7) x (T sub e/300) exp -.46 near room temperature. The v = 1 and v = 2 rates are about 17% and 47% smaller respectively, than the v = 0 rate at 300 K.
