▪ Abstract Recent studies of state-resolved angular distributions show the participation of
reactive scattering resonances in the simplest chemical reaction. This review is intended for …

In this contribution, we give a full account of the approach of femtosecond, time-resolved
mass spectrometry in molecular beams for the studies of the elementary steps of complex …

The dependence of the angular momentum polarization (orientation and alignment) of the
fragments on the direction of ejection k, is studied quantum mechanically for molecular …

This article presents the progress made in probing femtosecond transition–state dynamics of
elementary reactions. Experiments demonstrating the dynamics in systems characterized by …

Photolysis of a molecule typically yields open-shell photofragments having angular
momenta. A procedure is described for the measurement of the photofragment angular …

Because of their fundamental, as well as practical, importance, unimolecular reactions have
been studied for many decades. Recently, spectacular experimental results and rapid …

X'2+ transitions. The CO+ was detected by the ion imaging technique of Chandler and
Houston. The nascent CO was found only in the v= 0 state, and its rotational state population …
