✦ Synopsis
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 corresponding cross section is estimated to be in the order of lo-*O m*.
