Description

The fragmentation of the H3 3s (N = 1, K = 0) molecule into three hydrogen atoms is investigated. The exchange properties of the protons and electron are considered and lead to selection rules both in the possible initial state as in the observed momentum distributions of the fragments. Model wavefunctions are used to calculate the fragmentation probabilities showing basically ring structure in the Dalitz plots
