Threshold Photoelectron-photoion Coincidence Imaging of Dissociation Dynamic of NO⁺ at c³∏(v′=0) State

The photodissociation of NO⁺ at c³∏(v′=0) state is studied by threshold photoelectron-photoion coincidence imaging method. By some assumptions, the relations between velocity in center of mass (CM) coordinates and most probable center of mass (MPCM) coordinates,time of flight and displacement in the velocity map image of fragment ions are derived using vector addition of velocity and displacement on the condition of perpendicular molecular beam. Using these relations the velocity in CM coordinates, the velocity and angular distri-bution of N⁺ fragment ions in MPCM coordinates are obtained and discussed, respectively.
