Molecular beam photofragment translational energy spectroscopy

The photolysis of CH3NO2 by 193 nm laser light was studied by product emission spectroscopy and molecular beam photofragment translational energy spectroscopy by Butler et al. (119). Blais (120) also studied the photolysis by the TOF method. The primary process is... 

Molecular beam photofragment translational energy spectroscopy has been used by Hepburn et to elucidate the photodissociation mechanisms of Si glyoxal. They presented evidence for predissociation of S, glyoxal in the absence of collisions and for the existence of three distinct dissociation pathM(ays. The major dissociation mechanisms were shown to lead to the formation of H2CO + CO and 2CO-I-H2, with a third minor channel producing CO 3-an isomer of H2CO, possibly hydroxymethylene.
