β¦ Synopsis
The S o -~ S 1 transition of indene was studied in a supersonic jet by resonance enhance multiphoton ionization and assigned with the help of an ab initio calculation. Experimental results are also reported for argon and krypton clusters of indene, from which the dissociation energies of the 1:1 clusters were estimated in both S O and S 1 states. Two-color two-photon ionization spectroscopy was used to determine the ionization potential and dissociation energy of the indene-argon cluster ion. The data are compared with results obtained for styrene, whose electronic structure is similar, but has much lower frequency out-of-plane vibrational modes.

Clusters of styrene and [3-methylstyrene (BMS) with argon and of styrene with molecular nitrogen were prepared in a supersonic jet. The vibrational frequencies of the solvated styrenes in S 1 are very similar to that of the bare molecule, but some small, non-negligible differences are noted. A corre
