Abstract
We report preliminary results of a study of the Hopfield series in rot ationally cooled molecular nitrogen. By using angle resolved electron spectroscopy in combination with synchrotron radiation, partial cross sections and asymmetry parameters for formation of the vibrationally r esolved X and A states of N2+ were measured in the region of the n = 6 member of the Hopfield bands. The results are compared with earlier a b initio MQDT calculations and reflect qualitative agreement for the X 2SIGMA(g)+ decay channel, but sharp disagreement for the A 2PI(u) dec ay channel.
