The State Identification of Reaction Products.

Abstract

We have employed lasers to study elementary chemical reactions and to examine the structure of molecular ions. Specifically, we have: (1) investigated the effect of atomic reagent approach geometry on the outcome of chemical reaction, (2) examined ion unimolecular fragmentation kinetics using a novel multiphoton ionization technique, (3) studied the molecular (+)CO2 ion using doubleresonance spectroscopy, and (4) developed a new method for determining the vibrational structure of molecular ions.
