Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
REMPI spectroscopy will be used to characterise Rydberg and valence states of the Rg.NO complexes. These excited states will be used as intermediate levels in ZEKE experiments to gain information on the cations of these species. Thermodynamic quantities will be derived from the experimental data an ab initio calculations. Electronically excited states of the NO dimer will be characterised, and used as resonant levels in ZEKE experiments, to try and establish the equilibrium geometry of the cation. Na. Rg and Na.X complexes will also be studied using REMPI and ZEKE spectroscopy, to give information on excited electronic states and the cationic ground states. The competition between the Rydberg electron and Rg for the same region of space in electronically excited states of Na.Rg and Rg.NO complexes will be of particular interest.
