Electron beam excitation of nitrogen was utilized to produce ions in the zeroth and first vibrational levels of the B2Σu+ state. The rate constants for the collisional deactivation of electronically excited N2+, for each of N2 and NO, were determined individually for the v′ = 0 and v′ = 1 vibrational levels of the N2+(B2Σu+) state. Charge transfer is the most probable mode of deactivation.
