โฆ Synopsis
The presence of molecular thallium, most probably Tlz, in a hypersonic beam was verified by two methods: time-of-flight mass spectroscopy of ions resulting from excitation using pulsed lasers, and dependence of the photoionization signals on the Tl vapor pressure in the beam oven. The results of photoionization spectroscopy provide tentative confirmation of previous reports on the absorption spectrum of T12. An attempt to observe laser-induced dissociation of Tl, into an excited atomic state was unsuccessful, indicating that a previous report of this process was incorrect.

Triatomic van der Waals complexes of mercury have been observed in a supersonic expansion beam crossed with a laser beam to produce excitation and fluorescence spectra. The expansion beam consisting of mercury and a (noble) carrier gas (RG) was excited in three separate spectral regions: in the vici
