RT Journal Article T1 A slice imaging and multisurface wave packet study of the photodissociation of CH3I at 304 nm A1 Rubio-Lago, Luis A1 Rodríguez. Javier, A1 García-Vela, Alberto A1 González, María A1 Amaral, Gabriel A1 Bañares Morcillo, Luis AB The role of the conical intersection between the 1Q1 and 3Q0 excited states in the photodissociation of CH3I at 304 nm is investigated drawing a comparison between the adiabatic—through direct absorption to the 3Q1 state—and non-adiabatic—via the 1Q1 → 3Q0 conical intersection—production of I atoms in the ground 2P3/2 state. The versatility of the slice imaging technique in combination with resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) detection of I(2P3/2) atoms allow distinct measurements of the competing processes. The I(2P3/2) atom kinetic energy distributions (KEDs) obtained in both cases reflect inverted vibrational progressions of the ν2 umbrella mode of the CH3 co-product. The experimental results show a satisfactory agreement with multisurface wave packet calculations using a reduced dimensionality (pseudotriatomic) model carried out on the available ab initio potential energy surfaces PB Royal Society of Chemistry SN 1463-9076 YR 2011 FD 2011 LK https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/92763 UL https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/92763 LA eng NO Rubio-Lago, L., et al. «A Slice Imaging and Multisurface Wave Packet Study of the Photodissociation of CH3I at 304 Nm».
