Abstract
We develop a model describing the relative kinetic energy distribution of the hydrogen atom pair formed by spontaneous photon emission in a transition from the bound state g 3Σ+g of H2 to the repulsive state b 3Σ+u. The results are compared to the experiments of Koot, van der Zande, and Los. The calculations are based on a time dependent theory of the dissociation process.
