VMI spectrometer tantalisingly close to operation!
Ions are through to the new spectometer, and we have successfully overlapped them with the laser to detach electrons
Onwards to glory!
Vibrational resolution for the I-...O2 species
New Honours student Peter Watson has recorded photoelectron spectra of the halide-oxygen complexes, and achieved vibational resolution for the iodide species.We welcome Peter Watson to the group
Peter has signed up for an honours project in the group, and will investigate the halide-oxygen complexes via photoelectron spectroscopy and ab initio calculations (most likley CCSD(T) with large basis sets - we don't do things by half in the Laser Lab!)
