The dynnmics of dissociation following a direct photon absorption to a repulsive state are studied using the theory of scattering by two potentinis. Comp~t~~ion31 results for the (linear) qu~std~atomic madel of iCN are presented and compared with the results of classicai trajectory cnlculotione. \*
iinearly pohrized synchrotron radiation (1100-1700 A) is used to photodissociate ICN, and emission from the CN (B'S+) fragment is analyzed for its degce of polarization, \\hich is found to \ary bct\\een 0 and S%\_ This mexurcment establishes the direction of the absorption transition dipole moment i
Potential energy surfaces of low-lying excited states of ICN have been calculated for linear and bent dissociation using the ab initio spin-orbit CI method with the effective spin-orbit Hamiltoman. Contrary to popular belief, all the relevant excited surfaces are bent in the Franck-Condon region and
