چکیده
The doubly degenerate core-excited Pi state of CO2 splits into two due to static Renner-Teller effect. Using the triple-ion-coincidence momentum imaging technique and focusing on the dependence of the measured quantities on the polarization of the incident light, we have probed, directly and separately, the linear and bent geometries for the B1 and A1 Renner-Teller pair states, as a direct proof of the static Renner-Teller effect.

Role of the Renner-Teller effect after core hole excitation in the dissociation dynamics of carbon dioxide dication.
The fragmentation of the doubly-charged carbon dioxide molecule is studied after photoexcitation to the C 1s(1)2π(u) and O 1s(1)2π(u) states using a multicoincidence ion-imaging technique. The bent component of the Renner-Teller split states populated in the 1s→ π* resonant excitation at both the carbon and oxygen 1s ionization edges opens pathways to potential surfaces in highly bent geometrie...
متن کاملSymmetry-resolved vibrational spectroscopy for the C 1s(-1)2 pi(u) Renner-Teller pair states in CO(2).
Symmetry-resolved excitation spectra have been measured for the Renner-Teller pair states A(1) and B(1) split from the core-excited C 1s(-1)2 pi(u) state in CO(2). A vibrational progression with the spacings of approximately 145 meV is found in both the A(1) and B(1) spectra at different energies and assigned to the symmetric stretching mode caused in the B(1) linear state, with the help of ab ...
متن کاملRenner-Teller nonadiabatic coupling terms: An ab-initio study of the HNH molecule.
In this Communication we present the first theoretical/numerical treatment of nonadiabatic coupling terms (NACT) that originate from the Renner-Teller (RT) model, namely, those that follow from the splitting of an electronic level of a linear molecule when it becomes bent. These two newly formed states are characterized by different symmetries and are designated as A and B. Our main findings: (...
متن کاملIs the HCCS radical linear in the excited state?
The A (2)Pi-X (2)Pi 415 nm band system of the linear HCCS radical has been known since 1978, but the vibronic structure in this complex spectrum, which has both spin-orbit and Renner-Teller complications, has never been satisfactorily assigned, despite serious experimental and theoretical efforts. In a further attempt to understand the spectrum, we have studied the laser-induced fluorescence sp...
متن کاملFemtosecond time-resolved photoelectron-photoion coincidence imaging of multiphoton multichannel photodynamics in NO2.
The multiphoton multichannel photodynamics of NO(2) has been studied using femtosecond time-resolved coincidence imaging. A novel photoelectron-photoion coincidence imaging machine was developed at the laboratory in Amsterdam employing velocity map imaging and "slow" charged particle extraction using additional electron and ion optics. The NO(2) photodynamics was studied using a two color pump-...
