The H + Ar + F reaction leading to HArF formation in an argon matrix is studied at temperatures down to 8 K. The effects of the precursor concentration, deuteration, IR light, and deposition temperature as well as thermal activation of this reaction are studied. It is found that HArF molecules are f...
