Miscellaneous Useful Topics in Molecular Ion Dissociation Phenomena

  • Chapter
Gaseous Molecular Ions

Part of the book series: Topics in Physical Chemistry ((TOPPHYSCHEM,volume 2))

Abstract

From Chapters 1 and 2 it is easy to deduce that the complete redistribution of electronic energy in internal energy of the ground state ion, through radiationless transitions, is a widely realized behavior for complex molecular ions. In some cases, however, this step is limited by the occurrence of some radiative desexcitation. As the reader now realizes, this randomization is the prerequisite to the statistical distribution of vibrational energy in the ground molecular ion state, allowing an RRKM treatment of its subsequent decays.
