Abstract

We have studied the double-photoionization process of tropone (C7H6O) and cyclooctatetraene (C8H8) as a function of photon energy using monochromatized synchrotron radiation between 18 and 270 eV. We compare our results with previously published data for partially deuterated benzene (C6H3D3), which exhibits three distinct features in the ratio of doubly to singly charged parent ions, whereas pyrrole (C4H4N) exhibits only two of these features. The question that we address in this paper is how molecules with different molecular structures (pentagonal, hexagonal, heptagonal, and octagonal carbon rings) affect the photon-energy dependence of this ratio.
