Abstract
The internal state and kinetic energy distributions of the X̃ NO fragments formed from the ultraviolet photodissociation of the NO–Ar van der Waals species were obtained by laser-excited fluorescence techniques. The initially excited à NO–Ar rapidly dissociates to form X̃ NO with little rotational excitation, with vibrational excitation determined by a Franck–Condon process, with a cos2 θ angular flux distribution (θ defined relative to the direction of polarization of the pump laser), and with a speed v∼4.4×105 cm/s.Keywords
