We detected fluorescence of OH (A 22+-X 2II) from nitric acid pbotolyzed at 193 nm. Transitions for spin-orbit states are resolved; the population ratio of these states is II3/2/FI]/2 ~ 1.1 ± 0.1. About 3% of available energy is distributed to rotation of the OH fragment; no vibrationally excited OH

The objective of this Letter is to emphasise the importance of using the correct angular momentum selection rules and angular momentum coupling algebra when computing fragment rotational quantum state distributions in molecular photodissociation processes. Because the effort required for the computa
