Abstract

Molecular spectroscopy is one of the oldest fields in physics and physical chemistry. With the discovery of molecular beams and lasers it has assumed a new importance. The development of coherent, intense, highly monochromatic light sources from the IR to the UV has promised to put at the disposal of “molecular beamists” new and powerful tools that will enable the performance of highly refined and sophisticated experiments not previously feasible.
