Description

A new and more detailed interpretation is given to the fine structure in the photoionization curve of cold NO observed by Ng, Mahan and Lee (J. Chem. Phys. 65 (1976) 1975). Resonances are assigned to autoionizing np and nd delta Rydberg levels which give prominent diffuse absorption bands in a spectrum recorded with the synchrotron radiation continuum. Δv <-1 transitions in the vibrational autoionization process are substantiated. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Es wird eine neue und genauere Interpretation der Feinstruktur der Photoionisationskurve gegeben, die von Ng, Mahan und Lee (J. Chem. Phys. 65 (1976) 1965) gemessen wurde. Die Resonanzen werden autoionisierenden np- und nd delta-Rydbergzustaenden zugeordnet, die zu wichtigen diffusen Absorptionsbanden in einem Spektrum fuehren, das mit Hilfe der kontinuierlichen Synchrotronstrahlung aufgenommen wurde. Im vibratorischen Autoionisationsprozess werden Δv <-1-Uebergaenge nachgewiesen. (orig.)
