Results of two experiments performed on a new very high resolution crossed molecular beams apparatus are discussed. The first experiment, photofragmentation of methyl iodide, is deconvoluted to yield vibrational state distributions for the recoiling methyl fragment. These distributions are then analyzed in terms of half-collision models and Franck-Condon factors. The second experiment, a full-collision example, is the reaction of F atoms with H/sub 2/ and D/sub 2/. Laboratory angular and velocity distributions for both systems are obtained at several energies. Center-of-mass product distributions are calculated and discussed in terms of recently predicted state dependent resonance phenomena for the reaction. The …

These distributions are then analyzed in terms of half-collision models and Franck-Condon factors. The second experiment, a full-collision example, is the reaction of F atoms with H/sub 2/ and D/sub 2/. Laboratory angular and velocity distributions for both systems are obtained at several energies. Center-of-mass product distributions are calculated and discussed in terms of recently predicted state dependent resonance phenomena for the reaction. The design of the new apparatus is also discussed.
