Abstract :
The paper reports on preliminary results of a study into a possibility of developing a fast method of atmospheric air analysis for the purpose of determination of the isotope composition of water vapors (H218O, HD16O, HTO) with the method of non-stationary terahertz (THz) range spectroscopy.
