Abstract
A new and sensitive electron impact spectrometer has been used to observe pure vibrational excitation in H2, NO and O2. The excitation of vibrational levels of their ground states with over 4 eV energy has been observed. This excitation is produced by the decay of unbounded resonant states along the path which can eventually end in dissociation (dissociative attachment).Keywords
