The quantum yields for OH formation from the photolysis of HNO(3) were measured to be (0.88 +/- 0.09) at 248 and (1.05 +/- 0.29) at 308 nm and of H(2)O(2) to be (1.93 +/- 0.39) at 308 and (1.96 +/- 0.50) at 320 nm. The quoted uncertainties are at the 95% confidence level and include estimated systematic uncertainties. OH radicals were produced using pulsed laser photolysis and monitored using pulsed laser-induced fluorescence. Quantum yields were measured relative to the OH quantum yields from a reference system. The measured quantum yields at 248 nm are in agreement with previous direct determinations. The quantum yield values at 308 and 320 nm are the first direct quantum yield measurements at these wavelengths and confirm the values currently recommended for atmospheric model calculations. Rate coefficients (at 298 K) for the OH + H(2)O(2) and OH + HNO(3) + M (in 100 Torr of N(2)) reactions were measured during this study to be (1.99 +/- 0.16) x 10(-12) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) and (1.44 +/- 0.12) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), respectively.
