Energy distribution of the fragments produced by photodissociation of CS2 at 193 nm

Article abstract of DOI:10.1063/1.439686

Gaseous CS2 was dissociated at 193 nm into CS and S.The translational and internal energy distributions of the CS fragments were measured.There is now overwhelming evidence that the upper electronic state S₃ is predissociative.In fact there are three upper states of importance, the initially excited S₃, a state which dissociates to CS(X¹Σ) and S(¹D) and a triplet state which dissociates to CS(X¹Σ) and S(³P).The CS fragments were rotationally excited withy an average rotational energy ca.3.5 kcal/mole.The vibrational populations were also strongly inverted for both the ¹D and the ³P dissociations and their surprisal plots were linear.CS fragments were found with v<*>7.Of the dissociations resulting in CS fragments with v<*>6, 80 +/-10percent of the S atoms are produced in the ¹D state and 20 +/-10percent in the ³P state.
