MOLECULAR PHOTOIONIZATION AS A PROBE OF VIBRATIONAL-ROTATIONAL-ELECTRONIC CORRELATIONS

摘要

We determine the rotationally state-resolved 2 sigma(u)(-1) photoionization of N-2 into alternative vibrational channels as a function of energy over a 200 eV range. Experiment and theory reveal that Cooper minima highlight the coupling between electronic, vibrational, and rotational degrees of freedom over this very wide range. [References: 28]
