A mechanical treatment of atomic recombination reactions is developed for the case in which the reaction is considered to involve an intermediate excited molecule which is stabilized on collision with any third body. An explicit rate calculation is given for the reaction I + I + A yields I/sub 2/ + A Results are compared with those obtained by treating other models of recombination. The validity of the excited intermediate model and the role of electronic degeneracy are discussed. (auth
