Abstract
The reaction kinetics in nitrogen flowing afterglow was studied by optical emission spectroscopy. The DC flowing post-discharge in pure nitrogen was created in a quartz tube at the total gas pressure of 1000 Pa. The optical emission spectra were measured along the flow tube. It was found that N atoms are the most important particles in the late nitrogen afterglow. In order to explain the decrease of N atom concentration, it was also necessary to include the surface recombination of N atoms to the model
