Abstract
Mass resolved multiphoton ionization data for two-photon resonant excitations (REMPI) in the 69 000-79 000 cm-1 region were recorded for HI. REMPI spectra of fragment and molecular ions were derived from the data and analysed to obtain information relevant to the state interactions, energetics and photofragmentation processes of intermediate Rydberg and ion-pair states (HI**). Spectral perturbations observed as line shifts and intensity anomalies acted complementarily to demonstrate the effects of the state interactions. The interaction strength and character mixing of Rydberg states and Rydberg and ion-pair states of different interaction types and the states energetics were quantified by deperturbation analysis for the high energy region of 75 000-79 000 cm-1, which is dense in states. Energetics of new, not previously observed, Rydberg states, detected in the lower energy excitation region of 69 000-75 000 cm-1 was characterized by simulation calculations. Ion intensity borrowing effects, found in the spectra of interacting states, are evidence of alterations in two-photon transition probabilities due to state mixing. Based on variations in relative spectral line intensities the major photofragmentation processes involved are proposed. These involve one-photon excitation of the intermediate states (HI**) to form repulsive superexcited states (HI#) followed by autoionization, dissociation, photodissociation and photoionization processes to form ions. The importance of state interactions in multiphoton-fragmentation processes is evident from the work.

Abstract
Velocity map imaging (VMI) data and mass resolved REMPI spectra are complementarily utilized to elucidate the involvement of homogeneous multistate interactions in excited state dynamics of HBr. The H1Σ+(v' = 0) and E1Σ+(v' = 1) Rydberg states and the V1Σ+(v'= m + 7) and V1Σ+(v'= m + 8) ion-pair states are explored as a function of rotational quantum number in the two-photon excitation region of 79 100-80 700 cm-1. H+ and Br+ images were recorded by one- as well as two-color excitation schemes. Kinetic energy release (KER) spectra and angular distributions were extracted from the data. Strong-to-medium interactions between the E(1) and V(m + 8)/V(m + 7) states on one hand and the H(0) and V(m + 7)/V(m + 8) states on the other hand were quantified from peak shifts and intensity analysis of REMPI spectra. The effects of those interactions on subsequent photoionization and photolytic pathways of HBr were evaluated in one-color VMI experiments of the H+ and two-color VMI experiments of the Br+ photoproducts.

Abstract
Hydrogen iodide, a Hund's case (c) molecule, serves as a benchmark compound for studying rich molecular state interactions between Rydberg and valence states as well as between Rydberg states at high energies (72,300-74,600 cm(-1)) by mass resolved resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI). Perturbations in the spectra appearing as deformations in line-positions, line-intensities, and linewidths are found to be either due to near-degenerate or non-degenerate interactions, both homogeneous and heterogeneous in nature. Perturbation analyses allow indirect observation as well as characterization of "hidden states" to some extent. Furthermore, new observable spectral features are assigned and characterized.

Abstract
For many years the three-dimensional (3D) ion imaging technique has not benefited from the introduction of ion optics into the field of imaging in molecular dynamics. Thus, a lower resolution of kinetic energy as in comparable techniques making use of inhomogeneous electric fields was inevitable. This was basically due to the fact that a homogeneous electric field was needed in order to obtain the velocity component in the direction of the time of flight spectrometer axis. In our approach we superimpose an Einzel lens field with the homogeneous field. We use a simulation based technique to account for the distortion of the ion cloud caused by the inhomogeneous field. In order to demonstrate the gain in kinetic energy resolution compared to conventional 3D Ion Imaging, we use the spatial distribution of H(+) ions emerging from the photodissociation of HCl following the two photon excitation to the V (1)Sigma(+) state. So far a figure of merit of approximately four has been achieved, which means in absolute numbers Delta v/v = 0.022 compared to 0.086 at v approximately = 17,000 m/s. However, this is not a theoretical limit of the technique, but due to our rather short TOF spectrometer (15 cm). The photodissociation of HBr near 243 nm has been used to recognize and eliminate systematic deviations between the simulation and the experimentally observed distribution. The technique has also proven to be essential for the precise measurement of translationally cold distributions.

Abstract
The paper presents the detailed theoretical description of the intermediate state polarization and photofragment angular distribution in resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) of molecules and the experimental investigation of these effects in the E(1)Sigma(+) and V(1)Sigma(+) states of HCl populated by two-photon transitions. It is shown that the intermediate state polarization can be characterized by the universal parameter b which is in general a complex number containing information about the symmetry of the two-photon excitation and possible phase shifts. The photofragment angular distribution produced by one- or multiphoton excitation of the polarized intermediate state is presented as a product of the intermediate state axis spatial distribution and the angular distribution of the photofragments from an unpolarized intermediate state. Experiments have been carried out by two complementary methods: REMPI absorption spectroscopy of rotationally resolved (E,v'=0<--X,v"=0) and (V,v'=12<--X,v"=0) transitions and REMPI via the Q(0) and Q(1) rotational transitions followed by three-dimensional ion imaging detection. The values of the parameter b determined from experiment manifest the mostly perpendicular nature of the initial two-photon transition. The experimentally obtained H(+) -ion fragment angular distributions produced via the Q(1) rotational transition show good agreement with theoretical prediction.

Abstract
The electronically excited states HCl(*)(E,upsilon(')=0,J(')=0) and HCl(*)(V,upsilon(')=12,J(')=0) have been prepared by two-photon resonant absorption of ground state HCl via Q(0) transitions at 238.719 and at 236.000 nm, respectively. The consequent one-or two-photon excitation at the same wavelength results in the production of H(+), Cl(+), and HCl(+) ions. The speed distributions and anisotropy parameters beta for these ions have been determined by three-dimensional photo-fragment ion imaging based on a position-sensitive delay-line anode assembly. Several results are presented: first, we measured velocity (speed and angle) distributions for HCl(+) due to the electron recoil in the photoionization of HCl(*). Such distributions give information on the photoionization process and on the vibrational distribution of HCl(+) after the laser pulse. Second, the measured beta parameters for Cl(+) and H(+) distributions give information on the symmetries of the upper states in the one-photon photoexcitation of HCl(*). Third, the measured speed distributions for H(+) help to understand the mechanism of the photodissociation of HCl(+) ions.

Abstract
HCl+ and DCl+ ions were formed via the R(1) pump line of the f3delta2(v'=0)<--sigma+(v''=0) REMPI process. For these ions, the two-photon dissociation spectroscopy, resonance-enhanced via the A2sigma+(v')<--pi3/2(v''=0) transition, was investigated for various intermediate states of HCl+ (v'=4,5,6) and DCl+ (v'=6,7,8,9). From the analysis of the data, spectroscopic parameters of the X and the A states were derived (including the lambda-doubling in the X state and the spin-rotation coupling in the A state). Some of the parameters deviate considerably from literature data. The spectra provide clear evidence that the REMPI process employed for forming the ions has a very high rotational selectivity.
