We describe a new ion source in which a nozzle beam of neutral molecules is ionised by an electron beam and the resulting molecular ion beam is studied by microwave spectroscopic methods. This ionisation technique results in significant population of the near-dissociation levels of the molecular ion

β¦ Synopsis
The resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization spectra of uracil and thymine have been observed in the gas phase in a supersonic molecular beam. In spite of extensive cooling the spectra are broad and diffuse. These results are compared to a previously reported fluorescence spectrum for uracil which showed sharp structure. Photoionization spectra show that the species responsible for the sharp spectrum has a higher molecular weight than uracil, and this species appears to be an impurity formed from uracil in the oven. The diffuseness in the uracil and thymine spectra is attributed either to mixing of electronic states or to a large geometry change between the ground and excited electronic states.

Both fluorescence excitation and dispersed fluorescence spectra of 2-aminobenzotrifluoride in a supersonic jet show quite extensive vibrational structure due to the CF,-torsional motion in the S, and So electronic states, respectively. This structure has been assigned and results in CF,-torsional po
