## Abstract

Time-resolved direct frequency comb spectroscopy (TRFCS) was used to study the kinetics of the deuterated analogue of the OH+CO-\>H+CO2 reaction, which is important for atmospheric and combustion chemistry. Complementing our recent work on quantifying the formation rate of the transient trans-DOCO radical, we report measurements of the kinetics of the activated product channel, D+CO2, at room temperature. Simultaneous measurements of the time-dependence of OD and CO2 concentrations allowed us to directly determine the formation rate, branching yield, and dependence on pressure and bath gas of the activated product. Together with the trans-DOCO formation rate, these new measurements provide absolute yields of branching channels for both products of OD+CO in the low-pressure limit.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
