✦ Synopsis

The gas-phase free radicals CaCCH and SrCCH were synthesized by the reaction of Ca or Sr vapor with HCCH. The electronic and vibrational structure of these molecules were investigated by laser excitation spectroscopy and laser-induced fluorescence. These ionic metal acetylides proved to be linear in geometry.
