Crossed Molecular Beam Study of the Reactions of Oxygen and Fluorine Atoms.
Abstract
There has been a shift in the direction of this research program during the past year. In order to understand the dynamics of unimolecular dissociation of isolated molecules, a new program on molecular beam photofragmentation translational spectroscopy was initiated. Three projects which have been completed during the last year are summarized On the Photodissociation of Nitromethane at 266 nm. Energy Splitting Between Singlet and Triplet Methylene by Photodissociation of Ketene. Frequency Dependence of Quantum State Distributions of Photofragments of Ozone. All three projects involve the dissociation through electronic excitation. In the coming years, the dynamics of dissociation of energetic molecules through ground electronic states will be investigated using infrared multiphoton excitation processes. (Author)
