Abstract
STUDIES of the kinetic behaviour of hydrogen atoms in atmospheric flames1 usually involve detection of hydrogen atoms by indirect methods, but direct detection actually in the flame itself has not been reported. We report here the observation of hydrogen atoms in free-burning flames at atmospheric pressure by electron spin resonance.
