Abstract
We report the first measurement of the near IR spectrum of the NO-CH(4) complex in the region of the first vibrational NO overtone transition in an IR-resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization double resonance experiment. The origin band is located at 3723.26 cm(-1), i.e., redshifted by 0.59 cm(-1) from the corresponding NO monomer frequency. The observed spectrum consists of two bands assigned to the origin band and the excitation of hindered rotation of the NO monomer in the complex similar to z-axis rotation. The spacing and the relative intensity of the bands are consistent with a structure in which NO resides preferentially in a position perpendicular to the intermolecular axis. The deviation from the linear configuration with C(3v) symmetry can be regarded as a Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion. Each band is dominated by two broad peaks with a few resolved rotational structures. The large spacing between the two peaks is indicative of significant angular momentum quenching, possibly another manifestation of the JT effect. The delay dependence between the IR and UV laser pulses reveals a lifetime of about 10 ns for the vibrationally excited complex due to vibrational predissociation. On the other hand, the linewidth of the narrowest spectral features indicates a much shorter excited state lifetime of about 100 ps, most likely due to intramolecular vibrational redistribution.

Abstract
The formation process of binary clusters has been studied using synchrotron based core level photoelectron spectroscopy. Free neutral krypton clusters have been produced by adiabatic expansion and doped with chloromethane molecules using the pickup technique. The comparison between the integrated intensities, linewidths, and level shifts of the cluster features of pure krypton and of chloromethane-krypton clusters has been used to obtain information about the cluster geometry. We have shown that most of the chloromethane molecules remain on the surface of the clusters.

Abstract
We have employed (2 + 1) resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization spectroscopy to investigate the 3d and 4s Rydberg states of the NO molecule when bound to the surface of Rg(x) clusters (Rg = rare gas). We observe that the spectra of the NO-Ar(x) species converge in appearance as x increases, and this is discussed in terms of two Rg atoms interacting with the NO+ core, with other Rg atoms being "outside" the Rydberg orbital. We show that the interaction of each of the Rg atoms with the NO is essentially independent for the NO-Rg2 complexes: both by comparing our spectra for Rydberg states of NO-Rg and NO-Rg2, and from the results of ab initio calculations on NO+ - Rg and NO+ - Rg2. In addition, we discuss the disappearance of some electronic bands upon complexation in terms of Franck-Condon factors that are very sensitive to the angular coordinate. We relate our results to those of the bulk by comparing to the previously reported electronic spectroscopy of NO in both Rg matrices and He nanodroplets.

Abstract
The A2delta-X2pi transition of CH-Ne was examined using laser-induced fluorescence and fluorescence depletion techniques. The spectrum was found to be particularly congested due to the large number of bound states derived from the CH(A,n=2)+Ne interaction, and the small energy spacings between these states resulting from the relatively weak anisotropy of the van der Waals bond. High-level ab initio calculations were used to generate two-dimensional potential energy surfaces for CH(X)-Ne and CH(A)-Ne. The equilibrium structures from these surfaces were bent and linear for the X and A states, respectively. Variational calculations were used to predict the bound states supported by the ab initio surfaces. Empirical modification of the potential energy surfaces for the A state was used to obtain energy-level predictions that were in good agreement with the experimental results. Transitions to all of the optically accessible internal rotor states of CH(A,n=2)-Ne were identified, indicating that CH performs hindered internal rotations in the lowest-energy levels of the A and X states. The characteristics of the potential energy surfaces for CH-Ne in the X,A,B, and C states suggest that dispersion and exchange repulsion forces dominate the van der Waals interaction.
