β¦ Synopsis
The photodissociation of (CO*), and Ar, clusters has been investigated in a crossed-beams experiment, by means of the timeresolved opto-thermal technique. Clusters have been irradiated using both non-resonant visible and resonant infrared radiation (for (CO,), only). The cross section for visible photodissociation of neutral (COz), clusters has been estimated to be at least four orders of magnitude smaller than that reported by Stamatovic, Howorka, Scheier and Mirk.

Strong photodissociation in the visible of neutral (CO,),, n< 20, clusters produced by supersonic expansion and detected by electron ionization/attachment mass spectrometry is reported. Raman-induced dissociation (RIP) is suggested to be responsible for the occurrence of this phenomenon. The corresp
