Notes:
The electronic spectrum of N2+–He has been measured in the region corresponding to the N2+ B 2Σ+u←X 2Σ+g origin transition. The spectrum was recorded by photoexciting a mass selected beam of N2+–He ions and detecting N2+ fragments. A likely process for the fragmentation involves fluorescence to a vibrationally excited level of the ground electronic state followed by vibrational predissociation. The observed spectrum exhibits well resolved discrete structure and bears a remarkable resemblance to a cold N2+ spectrum suggesting that the potential between the N2+ ion and helium atom in both the X and B electronic states, has at most only a small barrier to internal rotation. Measurement of the shift of N2+–He transitions with respect to the corresponding N2+ lines indicates that the binding energy of the helium atom to the N2+ ion is almost the same in both the B and X electronic states.
