โฆ Synopsis
Pyrimidine molecules in a pulsed seeded beam were laser excited via the T , +So forbidden transition. Downstream from the excitation region the pyrimidine molecules, prepared in a well-specified vibrational level (excitation in the 338 nm band) of the long-lived T, state, collided with Xe atoms from a secondary pulsed beam. This led to endothermic energy transfer to the S, state, which was detected by the subsequent S , + So emission, having a wavelength shorter than that used for the laser excitation. The cross section for this process was estimated and its dependence on the collision energy was measured.
