✦ Synopsis

The photodissocltion of n linear triatomic molecule from rt\ lowest state (Lcro-pomt lcvcl of the ground electronic state) is duscribcd classically as resulting from a Franck-Condon JUtUp to ;t ropulsivc higher ckxtronic Gate followed by motion on the disqociativc surface. The Wagner distribution fun~tron IC used to specify the mittat conditrons The &~&al moments obtained in this ivay ogrce well with the quanta1 morn&W of a close-coupling ~tloulation. A di%rcttr;ition UWI~ the information theoretic approach has yielded very good probability dtstrlbutions for tl~e vIbrationa stJtcs of thu diatornic fragment. The system being studied 1s ICN with a plduslblc choice of potential pnrametcr% and dissocmtlng at high eUzitdtlOn energy into I + CN(B 2 X').
