Abstract
Resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy, prefer ably linked with kinetic energy analysis of the resulting photoelectro ns (REMPI-photoelectron spectroscopy (PES)), continues to make enormou s contributions to our understanding of the spectroscopy and, in many cases, the decay dynamics of small molecules in excited (normally Rydb erg) electronic states. Here we present results of recent REMPI and RE MPI-PES studies involving the ammonia molecule which provide further i llustration of some of the many opportunities offered by these techniq ues.
