Description/Abstract

The nascent chlorine atom (P-2) relative spin-orbit state population resulting from UV photolysis of HOCl has been measured by resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) in single laser experiments. The ratio of (0.30 +/- 0.07) for Cl*:Cl has been obtained, indicating a stronger preference for production of ground-state Cl(P-2(3/2)) than expected from statistical weights. Also, the Cl+ arrival-time spectra show that most of the energy available in the photolysis is converted into kinetic energy of the photofragments.
