Abstract
Pulsed field threshold ionization leads to a vibrationally resolved spectrum of the X 2E1g state of the benzene cation. It is further used to investigate the state‐selective dissociation of the benzene–Ar+ complex. Exclusive detection of threshold ions with a resolution of <9 cm−1 is achieved by kinetic energy analysis in a reflectron mass spectrometer.

Dissociation energy of neutral and ionic benzene‐noble gas dimers by pulsed field threshold ionization spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, a delayed pulsed field threshold ionization of clusters excited to high long-lived Rydberg states is used to study their dissociation behavior, which leads to an upper limit of the dissociation energy of benzene-Ar of 340 cm−1 which is probably higher than the true dissociation energies.
