The first application of picosecond polarization spectroscopy to probe gas phase intramolecular relaxation under collision free conditions is reported. This technique is a sensitive probe of molecular rotation and when applied to trans-stilbene vapor at 2OO'C an exponential decay in the anisotropy w
