Photodissociation Dynamics: Spectroscopy and Fragmentation of Small Polyatomic Molecules
ISBN: 9780521484145 / Angielski / Miękka / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Photodissociation induced by the absorption of single photons permits the detailed study of molecular dynamics such as the breaking of bonds, internal energy transfer and radiationless transitions. The availability, over the last decade, of powerful lasers operating over a wide frequency range has stimulated rapid development of new experimental techniques which make it possible to analyse photodissociation processes in unprecedented detail. At the same time, theorists have developed powerful methods to treat this fundamental process, at least for small molecules, in an essentially exact...
