Abstract

State-selected hot chlorine atoms are cleanly produced in the ²P_{3 2} by photodissociation of Cl₂ in the wavelength region between 323.6 and 331.0 nm. Ionization (by 3+1 MPI) with mass spectral analysis has been used to probe the atomic Cl state. The identification of the repulsive state is determined from a state correlation diagram based on Mulliken's work and from Franck-Condon considerations based upon potential energy curves calculated by Peyerimhoff and Buenker. The results are consistent with adiabatic dissociation of the photoexcited chlorine molecules.
