Experimental Chemical Physics: A 'Next Generation' Machine.

Abstract

An experimental arrangement is described which is used for studying gas phase elementary processes as well as gas/surface interactions. It consists of two separate parts: A photofragment spectrometer with LIF detection is used to study photoinitiated unimolecular and bimolecular reactions. An ultra high vacuum scattering chamber with MPI and mass spectrometric detection is used to probe fragments generated via molecule/molecule and molecule/surface interactions. A sophisticated data acquisition system is described based on LSI/11 23+ laboratory computers, that includes digital data collection, programmable pulse-and-delay generators, and simultaneously monitoring signals from several chemically distinct species. Keywords: Phase processors; Unimolecular and bimolecular reactions; Interactions; Photofragment; Spectrometer.
