Data from the visible airglow experiment on the Atmosphere Explorer-E satellite have been used to determine the quantum yield O(1S) and O(1D) from the dissociative recombination of O+2. A range of values between 0.09 and 0.23 has been obtained for the quantum yield of O(1S). It is shown that the quantum yield of O(1S) depends on the ratio of electron density to atomic oxygen density. This suggests that the quantum yield of O(1S) may depend on the degree of vibrational excitation of the recombining O+2. The quantum yield of O(1D) has been measured to be 1.23¿0.42, with no dependence on the electron-oxygen ratio.
