Abstract

This dissertation investigates the chemistry in water ice of radical species, such as OH and O, produced in radio-frequency discharge. This novel method of studying such reactive species in water ice is a departure from traditional laboratory methods that have been used for more than thirty years. The main difference is that the radicals are produced in the gas phase and deposited concurrently as the ice film grows as opposed to being produced in-situ via photolysis or radiolysis of the ice. Like the traditional method, oxidants such
