✦ Synopsis


Collision energy dependence of the Penning ionization cross-section for the Kr( 3 P) + (CH 3 ) 3 CBr ! Kr + (CH 3 ) 3 CBr þ + e À reaction was determined under orientation-angle resolved condition using an oriented (CH 3 ) 3 CBr beam and time-of-flight measurements. A remarkable resonance-type structure was found in the energy dependence of orientation-angle resolved Penning ionization cross-section. This resonance-type structure could be interpreted as a new-type Ônuclear-excited Feshbach resonanceÕ in the formation of vibrational excited Rydberg states leading to a competitive dissociative exit channel.
