The role of molecular vibration in the collision-induced dissociation of H2+ions

B. G. Lindsay, Farook Bashir Yousif, Colin J. Latimer

Abstract

Collisional dissociation of 1 keV H 2 + ions in specific vibrational states in hydrogen and helium has been investigated. The H 2 + ions were produced by photoionisation and state analysis was achieved using a new photoion-photoelectron coincidence apparatus which is described in detail. Results are in accord with theoretical predictions and compatible with non-state-selective experiments.
