The dynamics of vibrational wave packets in the weakly predissnciated C 'll" of Cs, have been examined by two color, femtosecond laser pump-probe techniques. The motion of the wave packet is detected by photoionizing the dimer with a time-delayed 620 nm pulse and monitoring the time-and energy-integ

✦ Synopsis
The vibrational wave packet dynamics of a heteronuclear diatomic alkali molecule in an excited state, the A I ~ + state of gaseous NaK, has been measured for the first time. At hpump = 790 nm, a wave packet oscillation period of 442 fs and dephasing within 10 ps has been observed. This dynamics has been analysed by calculation of Franck-Condon factors and difference potentials. It is from this seen that initially the pump pulse prepares a wave packet at the inner turning point of the A-state. The wave packet then evolves in time and is probed at the outer turning point by a transition to the E-state with subsequent fluorescence detection.
