Abstract
Electron‐energy‐loss and electron‐transmission spectra of (all‐E)‐1,3,5,7‐octatetraene were recorded with a trochoidal electron spectrometer. The energy‐loss spectra reveal two triplet states at 1.73 and 3.25 eV (0,0‐transitions), the UV‐active 1^1^B~u~ state at 4.40 eV, and a higher‐lying singlet state at 6.04 eV. The 2^1^A~g~ state recently reported to be the lowest excited singlet state in this polyene, could not be observed. This failure is probably de to a small excitation cross section under the scattering conditions used and the presence of the second triplet sate in the pertinent energy region. The electron‐transmission spectrum revealed three resonances (i.e. short‐lived anion states) at 1.5, 2.5, and 4.15 eV.

We have obtained the electron-energy-loss spectra below 1,000 eV for YBa2C~307-~. The spectra show contributions from all elemental constituents, although the Y-signal is very weak owing to its small concentration. The low-loss region and the Ba-core losses are very similar to those obtained for BaO
