โฆ Synopsis
We have generated a cold beam of the highly corrosive sulfur trioxide SO3 and have studied its photodissociation at 193 nm by photofragment translational spectroscopy, The spin-allowed process SO3( g 'A{) + hv --+ SOs( ji 'Al ) + 0( 'D) was found to be the primary dissociation channel. A part of the hot SOa fragments emerging from this decay undergoes secondary photodissociation SOz( x 'Al ) + hv + SO( g 3X-) + 0( 3P), No evidence was found for the occurrence of the energetically feasible pathway SO3(g'A{) + hv + SO(3C-) + 0~(~8,).

The photodissociation of the halon CF&Cl has been studied by the time-of-flight crossed-laser molecular-beam method at 193 nm. Two primary decays are operative, the dominant one yielding CFsCl+Br (DA') = 63.5 f 3 kcaJ/mol) with Br( 'P1,s): Br(\*P,,,) ~2: I and the second one CF,Br+CI (06s) =78 &4 kc
The photodissociation of CH2BrCl at 248 and 193 nm has been studied by translational spectroscopy. Both the product translational energy distribution and the anisotropy parameter were derived from the measured time-of-flight spectra. Results show that at 248 nm, CHzBrCl exclusively dissociates to CH
The photodissociation of CBrCls at 248 nm has been studied by translational spectroscopy. The primary dissociation process is shown to produce exclusively CC& and Br with an average translational energy of 20 kcal/mol. From the measured anisotropy parameter /I= -0.4f0.2, CBrCls undergoes a simple C-
The 193 nm photodissociation of the isotopomers SOz, SO: and SOO' (with O\*= '\*O) was studied by high-resolution photofragment translational spectroscopy. The translational energy distributions P(&) of the fragment pairs SOtO, SO'tff, SOt(T and SO\*+0 were determined from systematic analysis of the
