Journal ArticleDOI

A threshold-photoelectron fluorescence–photon coincidence study of radiationless transitions in the B2Π state of BrCN+

TL;DR: In this paper, the T-PEFCO technique was used to count the coincidences between threshold photoelectrons and the fluorescence photons emitted by photoions produced by synchrotron radiation excitation in the 13.5-15 eV excitation energy range.
Journal ArticleDOI

VUV spectroscopy and photochemistry of five interstellar and putative prebiotic molecules

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the photochemistry of molecules of astrophysical interest in the interstellar medium (ISM) and in planetary atmospheres, including methylformate (MF), glycolaldehyde (GA), dimethylether (DIM), aminoacetonitrile (AAC), and cyanoacetylene (CA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser pyrolysis: Effect of ambient gases on molecular spectral emission

TL;DR: In this article, the emission spectra of molecules in luminous plumes produced by focussing a Q-switched ruby laser beam on various solids (mostly elements) in the following gases at various pressures; air, H 2, N 2, SF 6 and O 2
Journal ArticleDOI

VUV Dissociative Photoionization of Quinoline in the 7–26 eV Photon Energy Range

TL;DR: In this paper, the dissociative photoionization of quinoline was studied by photoionisation mass spectrometry and ion yield measurements over a synchrotron photon excitation energy range 7-26 eV.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

VUV-UV absorption spectroscopy of DNA and UV screens suggests strategies for UV resistance during evolution and space travel

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used synchrotron light to measure VUV-UV absorption spectra (125-340 nm) for DNA and its components, including polygonal nucleotides and mononucleotides.
