Abstract
Mass selected hole-burning experiments in the gas phase are presented for the benzene dimer formed in a supersonic jet expansion. The observed spectra show three different ground state configurations for the dimer. From isotopically substituted dimers the structure of the most prominent conformer could be assigned to a very floppy T-shape like structure with two non-equivalent sites for the benzene molecules.Keywords
