Abstract
The ion imaging technique has been used to determine the recoil energy distribution of triplet pyrazine fragments following vibrational predissociation of pyrazine–Ar van der Waals clusters containing ∼4000 cm −1 of vibrational energy. The 2-dimensional image of the isotropic recoil distribution was converted to a radial velocity distribution using an analytical inverse Abel transform. The recoil probability distribution is found to be a monotonically decreasing function of energy, with an average recoil of ∼95 cm −1. Information theory is used to interpret the experimental results.
