Notes:
Measurement of the translational energy partitioning in the three-body dissociative photodetachment of O6− (O6−+hν→O2+O2+O2+e−) at 532 nm is reported. Using photoelectron and photofragment translational energy spectroscopies in coincidence, a complete kinematic measurement of the three-body dissociation of neutral O6 is obtained. Vibrationally resolved product translational energy distributions are observed. The results provide insights into the structure, binding energy, and dissociation dynamics of O6− and O6 and illustrate a new approach to the study of three-body reaction dynamics. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
