Abstract
The effect of an external magnetic field on the decay of an excited single rotational state of the 1Au electronic state of biacetyl is observed in a hypersonic jet experiment after narrow bandwidth laser excitation. The lifetime of the ex-cited state decreases already at low magnetic fields and the molecular quantum beat vanishes.Keywords
