Abstract
In real-time two-colour pump-probe ionisation experiments of NH, and N D, using femtosecond 155 nm excitation pulses the lifetime of several vibronic (B) over tilde levels was measured. The results obtained are discussed in terms of a simple model of nonadiabatic coupling between (B) over tilde and (A) over tilde vibronic levels. (C) 1998 Elsevier S cience B.V. All rights reserved.
