Abstract

Application of the method of molecular beam photofragmentation translational spectroscopy to the investigation of primary photo‐chemical processes of polyatomic molecules will be the main theme of this lecture. Concerted unimolecular dissociation processes, especially those that dissociate simultaneously into three products will be given as examples to illustrate how information concerning the dynamics and mechanism dissociation processes can be obtained from precise measurements of angular and velocity distributions of products in an experiment in which a well defined beam of molecules is crossed with a laser. Recent studies on the primary and secondary decompositions of RDX is shown to be dominated by concerted dissociation processes.
