Abstract
Abstract The dependence of the electronic transition moment on the internuclear distance is explicitly taken into account in the calculation of the photoionization cross section. Thus, the partial ionization cross sections for producing different vibrational states of the residual ion are obtained without invoking the Franck-Condon factor approximation. The exact electrostatic potential of H 2 + , as well as the two-center Coulomb field, is used in the evaluation of the continuum wave function. The result can explain fairly well the ratios of the partial cross sections measured at 584 A. The effect of the polarization of H 2 + due to the departing photoelectron is also studied and found to be small as far as the relative cross section is concerned. The total photoionization cross sections of H 2 and D 2 are compared with previous results obtained by other authors.
