Abstract
Rotationally resolved measurements are presented of interacting predis sociating resonances in the Schumann-Runge bands of O-2 that exhibit d estructive quantum interference for energies between the line centers. The interacting resonances are described using a coupled line shape d erived by treating simultaneously the perturbation and predissociation processes using the method of Fano [Phys. Rev. 124, 1866 (1961)].
