The photodissociation of Hz0 in the vacuum UV (X < 135 run) generates rotationally aligned populations of OH(A 2S> fragments. Measurements of their rotationally resolved fluorescence polarisation following photolysis at 130.4 nm reinforces the suggestion that the vibrational structure in the B 'Al -

✦ Synopsis
The photodissociation dynamics of acetylene to hydrogen atoms, C2H 2 -~ C2H + H and C2D 2 -'~ C2D + D, with C2H and C2D in the ground )( 2~+ and/or excited electronic .~ Eli states, has been investigated for the first time with tunable narrow-band vacuum ultraviolet laser radiation between 121 and 133 nm by employing hydrogen atom photofragment action spectroscopy. Action spectra have been taken at 2.5 cm -1 resolution with acetylene in a molecular beam adiabatically cooled internally to about 4 K. They exhibit pronounced discrete predissociative resonances of Rydberg and valence excited states resolved to homogeneous widths. From them dissociation lifetimes of individual states from 5 × 10-14 s to longer than 2 × 10 -12 S are derived.
