Abstract
Bimolecular rate coefficients were determined for the reaction CN(v = 1) + NO and O2 using continuous wave cavity ringdown spectroscopy in a uniform supersonic flow (UF-CRDS). The well-matched time scales for ringdown and reaction under pseudo-first-order conditions allow for the use of the SKaR method (simultaneous kinetics and ringdown) in which the full kinetic trace is obtained on each ringdown. The reactions offer an interesting contrast in that the CN(v = 1) + NO system is nonreactive and proceeds by complex-mediated vibrational relaxation, while the CN(v = 1) + O2 reaction is primarily reactive. The measured rate coefficients at 70 K are (2.49 ± 0.08) × 10-11 and (10.49 ± 0.22) × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 for the reaction with O2 and NO, respectively. The rate for reaction with O2 is a factor 2 lower than previously reported for v = 0 in the same temperature range, a surprising result, while that for NO is consistent with extrapolation of previous high-temperature measurements to 70 K. The latter is also discussed in light of theoretical calculations and measurements of the rate constants for the association reaction in the high-pressure limit. The measurements are complicated by the presence of a metastable population of high-J CN formed by photolysis of the precursor BrCN, and a kinetic model is developed to treat the competing relaxation and reaction. It is particularly problematic for reactions at low temperatures where the rotational relaxation and reaction have similar rates, precluding a reliable determination of the rate coefficients at 30 K. Also presented are important modifications to the data acquisition and control for the instrument that have yielded considerably enhanced stability and throughput.

Abstract
We present an experimental and theoretical investigation of the reaction of vibrationally excited CN (v = 1) with isomers of butadiene at low temperature. The experiments were conducted using the newly built apparatus, UF-CRDS, which couples near-infrared cw-cavity ring-down spectroscopy with a pulsed Laval flow. The well-matched hydrodynamic time and long ring-down time decays allow measurement of the kinetics of the reactions within a single trace of a ring-down decay, termed Simultaneous Kinetics and Ring-down (SKaR). The pulsed experiments were carried out using a Laval nozzle designed for the 70 K uniform flow with nitrogen as the carrier gas. The measured bimolecular rates for the reactions of CN (v = 1) with 1,3-butadiene and 1,2-butadiene are (3.96 ± 0.28) × 10-10 and (3.06 ± 0.35) × 10-10 cm3 per molecule per s, respectively. The reaction rate measured for CN (v = 1) with the 1,3-butadiene isomer is in good agreement with the rate previously reported for the reaction with ground state CN (v = 0) under similar conditions. We report the rate of the reaction of CN (v = 1) with the 1,2-butadiene isomer here for the first time. The experimental results were interpreted with the aid of variable reaction-coordinate transition-state theory calculations to determine rates and branching of the addition channels based on a high-level multireference treatment of the potential energy surface. H-abstraction reaction rates were also theoretically determined. For the 1,2-butadiene system, theoretical estimates are then combined with literature values for the energy-dependent product yields from the initial adducts to predict overall temperature-dependent product branching. H loss giving 2-cyano-1,3-butadiene + H is the main product channel, exclusive of abstraction, at all energies, but methyl loss forming 1-cyano-prop-3-yne is 15% at low temperature growing to 35% at 500 K. Abstraction forming HCN and various radicals is important at 500 K and above. The astrochemical implications of these results are discussed.

Abstract
Chirped-pulse rotational spectroscopy in a quasi-uniform flow has been used to investigate the reaction dynamics of a multichannel radical-radical reaction of relevance to planetary atmospheres and combustion. In this work, the NO + propargyl (C3H3) reaction was found to yield six product channels containing eight detected species. These products and their branching fractions (%), are as follows: HCN (50), HCNO (18), CH2CN (12), CH3CN (7.4), HC3N (6.2), HNC (2.3), CH2CO (1.3), HCO (1.8). The results are discussed in light of previous unimolecular photodissociation studies of isoxazole and prior potential energy surface calculations of the NO + C3H3 system. The results also show that the product branching is strongly influenced by the excess energy of the reactant radicals. The implications of the title reaction to the planetary atmospheres, particularly to Titan, are discussed.

Abstract
Since Arrhenius first proposed an equation to account for the behaviour of thermally activated reactions in 1889, significant progress has been made in our understanding of chemical reactivity. A number of capture theory models have been developed over the past several decades to predict the rate coefficients for reactions between ions and molecules-ranging from the Langevin equation (for reactions between ions and non-polar molecules) to more recent fully quantum theories (for reactions at ultra-cold temperatures). A number of different capture theory methods are discussed, with the key assumptions underpinning each approach clearly set out. The strengths and limitations of these capture theory methods are examined through detailed comparisons between low-temperature experimental measurements and capture theory predictions. Guidance is provided on the selection of an appropriate capture theory method for a given class of ion-molecule reaction and set of experimental conditions-identifying when a capture-based model is likely to provide an accurate prediction. Finally, the impact of capture theories on fields such as astrochemical modelling is noted, with some potential future directions of capture-based approaches outlined.

Abstract
Chirped-pulse Fourier transform microwave (CP-FTMW) spectroscopy is a powerful near-universal detection method finding application in many areas. We have previously coupled it with supersonic flows (CPUF) to obtain product branching in reaction and photodissociation. Because chirped-pulse microwave detection requires monitoring the free induction decay on the timescale of microseconds, it cannot be employed with good sensitivity at the high densities achieved in some uniform supersonic flows. For application to low-temperature kinetics studies, a truly uniform flow is required to obtain reliable rate measurements and enjoy all the advantages that CP-FTMW has to offer. To this end, we present a new setup that combines sampling of uniform supersonic flows using an airfoil-shaped sampling device with chirped-pulse mmW detection. Density and temperature variations in the airfoil-sampled uniform flow were revealed using time-dependent rotational spectroscopy of pyridine and vinyl cyanide photoproducts, highlighting the use of UV photodissociation as a sensitive diagnostic tool for uniform flows. The performance of the new airfoil-equipped CPUF rotational spectrometer was validated using kinetics measurements of the CN + C2H6 reaction at 50 K with detection of the HCN product. Issues relating to product detection by rotational spectroscopy and airfoil sampling are discussed. We show that airfoil sampling enables direct measurements of low temperature reaction kinetics on a microsecond timescale, while rotational spectroscopic detection enables highly specific simultaneous detection of reactants and products.

Abstract
The prospect of cooling matter down to temperatures that are close to absolute zero raises intriguing questions about how chemical reactivity changes under these extreme conditions. Although some types of chemical reaction still occur at 1 μK, they can no longer adhere to the conventional picture of reactants passing over an activation energy barrier to become products. Indeed, at ultracold temperatures, the system enters a fully quantum regime, and quantum mechanics replaces the classical picture of colliding particles. In this Review, we discuss recent experimental and theoretical developments that allow us to explore chemical reactions at temperatures that range from 100 K to 500 nK. Although the field is still in its infancy, exceptional control has already been demonstrated over reactivity at low temperatures.

Abstract
The UF-CRDS (Uniform Flow-Cavity Ring Down Spectrometer) is a new setup coupling for the first time a pulsed uniform (Laval) flow with a continuous wave CRDS in the near infrared for spectroscopy and kinetics at low temperature. This high resolution and sensitive absorption spectrometer opens a new window into the phenomena occurring within UFs. The approach extends the detection range to new electronic and rovibrational transitions within Laval flows and offers the possibility to probe numerous species which have not been investigated yet. This new tool has been designed to probe radicals and reaction intermediates but also to follow the chemistry of hydrocarbon chains and PAHs which play a crucial role in the evolution of astrophysical environments. For kinetics measurements, the UF-CRDS combines the CRESU technique (French acronym meaning reaction kinetics in uniform supersonic flows) with the SKaR (Simultaneous Kinetics and Ring-Down) approach where, as indicated by its name, the entire reaction is monitored during each intensity decay within the high finesse cavity. The setup and the approach are demonstrated with the study of the reaction between CN (v = 1) and propene at low temperature. The recorded data are finally consistent with a previous study of the same reaction for CN (v = 0) relying on the CRESU technique with laser induced fluorescence detection.

Abstract
Over the past decade, and particularly the past five years, a quiet revolution has been building at the border between atomic physics and experimental quantum chemistry. The rapid development of techniques for producing cold and even ultracold molecules without a perturbing rare-gas cluster shell is now enabling the study of chemical reactions and scattering at the quantum scattering limit with only a few partial waves contributing to the incident channel. Moreover, the ability to perform these experiments with nonthermal distributions comprising one or a few specific states enables the observation and even full control of state-to-state collision rates in this computation-friendly regime: This is perhaps the most elementary study possible of scattering and reaction dynamics.

Abstract
In selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry, SIFT-MS, analyses of humid air and breath, it is essential to consider and account for the influence of water vapour in the media, which can be profound for the analysis of some compounds, including H(2)CO, H(2)S and notably CO(2). To date, the analysis of methane has not been considered, since it is known to be unreactive with H(3)O(+) and NO(+), the most important precursor ions for SIFT-MS analyses, and it reacts only slowly with the other available precursor ion, O(2) (+). However, we have now experimentally investigated methane analysis and report that it can be quantified in both air and exhaled breath by exploiting the slow O(2) (+)/CH(4) reaction that produces CH(3)O(2) (+) ions. We show that the ion chemistry is significantly influenced by the presence of water vapour in the sample, which must be quantified if accurate analyses are to be performed. Thus, we have carried out a study of the loss rate of the CH(3)O(2) (+) analytical ion as a function of sample humidity and deduced an appropriate kinetics library entry that provides an accurate analysis of methane in air and breath by SIFT-MS. However, the associated limit of detection is rather high, at 0.2 parts-per-million, ppm. We then measured the methane levels, together with acetone levels, in the exhaled breath of 75 volunteers, all within a period of 3 h, which shows the remarkable sample throughput rate possible with SIFT-MS. The mean methane level in ambient air is seen to be 2 ppm with little spread and that in exhaled breath is 6 ppm, ranging from near-ambient levels to 30 ppm, with no significant variation with age and gender. Methane can now be included in the wide ranging analyses of exhaled breath that are currently being carried out using SIFT-MS.

Abstract
A personal perspective of the historical development of the flowing afterglow (FA) technique for measuring thermal energy ion-molecule reaction rate constants is presented. The technique was developed in the period starting in late 1962 in what was then the National Bureau of Standards in Boulder, Colorado. The motivation was primarily to obtain a quantitative understanding of the ion chemistry of the terrestrial ionosphere, a program that was substantially achieved. The thermal energy measurements were extended in temperature from 300 K to a range of 80 K-900 K and subsequently to a center-of-mass kinetic energy range up to ∼ 2 eV with the introduction of a drift tube into the FA.The chemical versatility, in regard to both the ion and the neutral reactants measured, remains unequaled and FA systems are currently in widespread use around the world for a variety of chemical research programs.
