Abstract
We present the experimental observation and detailed quantum mechanica l analysis of the complex resonances occurring through multiple predis sociation pathways. The complex features in the photodissociation spec trum of Cs-2 are well reproduced by the close-coupling calculation inc luding three channels. A very narrow resonance with a linewidth of sim ilar to 2 x 10(-7) cm(-1) is predicted. It is shown that q-reversal ca n occur in predissociation with only two channels involved.
