The ozone destruction observed at polar sunrise in the lower Arctic atmosphere has been suggested to be linked to catalytic reactions of BrOx (Br, BrO) radicals [Barrie et al., 1988]. The main catalytical cycle was considered to be the following: I$$\frac{{\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {BrO + BrO}& \to &{2Br + {O_2}}\\ {2(Br + O}& \to &{BrO + {O_2})} \end{array}}}{{\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {net}&{2{O_3}}& \to &{3{O_2}} \end{array}}}{\rm{ }}$$
