Abstract
We study the vacuum ultraviolet photodissociation dynamics of N2O via the C1Π state by using the time-sliced velocity map ion imaging technique. Images of N(2Dj=5/2, 3/2) products from the N atom elimination channels were acquired at a set of photolysis wavelengths from 142.55 to 148.19 nm. Vibrational states of the NO(X2Π) co-fragments were partially resolved in experimental images. From these images, the product total kinetic energy release distributions (TKERs), branching ratios of the vibrational states of NO(X2Π) co-fragments, and the vibrational state specific angular anisotropy parameters (β) have been determined. Notable features were found in the experimental results: the TKERs show that the NO(X2Π) co-fragments are highly vibrationally excited. For the highly vibrationally excited state of NO(X2Π), a bimodal rotational structure is found at all the studied photolysis wavelengths. Furthermore, the vibrational state specific β values of both spin-orbit channels (j = 3/2, 5/2) clearly show a monotonic decrease as the vibrational quantum number of NO(X2Π) increases. These observations suggest that multiple dissociation pathways play a role in the formation of the N(2Dj=5/2, 3/2) + NO(X2Π) products: one corresponds to a fast dissociation pathway through the linear state (the C1Π state) following the initial excitation to a slightly bent geometry in the vicinity of the linear C1Π configuration, leading to the low rotationally excited components with relatively large β values; the other corresponds to a relatively slow dissociation pathway through the bent C(31A') or C(31A″) state, leading to moderately rotationally excited NO(X2Π) products with smaller β values.

Abstract
A great deal of theoretical work has been carried out to investigate the properties of the six lowest singlet electronic states of N 2 O molecule: the ground state X 1A′; the excited states 11A′′, 21A′, 21A′′, 31A′ and 31A′′. Multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach has been used to compute the full-dimensional potential energy surfaces of the six lowest states employing aug-cc-pVQZ minus g orbital basis set. It was found that such of highly accurate potential yields excellent results of bond dissociation and vertical excitation energies in comparison with the experimental values. Several important symmetry and nonsymmetry related conical intersections in linear and bent geometries have been discussed. Of particular interest is the location of conical intersections between the 21A′(1Δ) and 31A′(1Π) states, and between the 11A′′(1Σ-) and 31A′′(1Π) states in linear geometry, as well as conical intersection between the X 1A′ and 21A′ states in bent geometry. The corresponding transition dipole moment surfaces have also been computed, connecting the ground electronic state to the lowest five excited states. Detailed discussion on the vector properties of the dipole transition has been presented specifically in the vicinity of the conical intersections.

Abstract
A time-dependent quantum dynamics theory has been presented to interpret product partial cross-sections of the photofragmentation of triatomic molecule by treating correctly the coupling of angular momenta and taking fully into account the vector properties of the transition dipole moment and electric field of the exciting radiation. A model system of [Formula: see text] has been used to study the nuclear motion of N 2 photofragments through the asymptotic dissociation channels which relies upon the transition dipole vector either lies parallel on the molecular plane (1A′→1A′) or perpendicular to the molecular plane (1A′→1A′′).

Abstract
Direct current slice and crush velocity map imaging has been used to probe the photodissociation dynamics of nitrogen dioxide above the second dissociation limit. The paper is a companion to a previous publication [J. Chem. Phys. 128, 164318 (2008)] in which we reported results for the O((3)P(J)) + NO((2)Pi(Omega)) adiabatic product channel. Here we examine the O((1)D(2)) + NO((2)Pi(Omega)) diabatic product channel at similar excitation energies. Using one- and two-color imaging experiments to observe the velocity distributions of state selected NO fragments and O atoms, respectively, we are able to build a detailed picture of the dissociation dynamics. We show that by combining the information obtained from velocity map imaging studies with mass-resolved resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization spectroscopy it is possible to interpret and fully assign the NO images. By recording two-color images of the O((1)D(2)) photofragments with different polarization combinations of the pump and probe laser fields we also measure the orbital angular momentum alignment in the atomic fragment. We find that the entire O((1)D(2)) photofragment distribution is similarly aligned with most of the population in the M(J) = +/-1 magnetic sublevels. The similarity of the fragment polarizations is interpreted as a signature of all of the O((1)D(2)) atoms being formed via the same avoided crossing. At the photolysis energy of 5.479 52 eV we find that the NO fragments are preferentially formed in v = 1 and that the vibrationally excited fragments exhibit a bimodal rotational distribution. This is in contrast to the unimodal rotational profile of the NO fragments in v = 0. We discuss these observations in terms of the calculated topology of the adiabatic potential energy surfaces and attribute the vibrational inversion and rotational bimodality of the v = 1 fragments to the symmetric stretch and bending motion generated on excitation to the (2) (2)B(2) state.

Abstract
The multiphoton multichannel photodynamics of NO(2) has been studied using femtosecond time-resolved coincidence imaging. A novel photoelectron-photoion coincidence imaging machine was developed at the laboratory in Amsterdam employing velocity map imaging and "slow" charged particle extraction using additional electron and ion optics. The NO(2) photodynamics was studied using a two color pump-probe scheme with femtosecond pulses at 400 and 266 nm. The multiphoton excitation produces both NO(2) (+) parent ions and NO(+) fragment ions. Here we mainly present the time dependent photoelectron images in coincidence with NO(2) (+) or NO(+) and the (NO(+),e) photoelectron versus fragment ion kinetic energy correlations. The coincidence photoelectron spectra and the correlated energy distributions make it possible to assign the different dissociation pathways involved. Nonadiabatic dynamics between the ground state and the A (2)B(2) state after absorption of a 400 nm photon is reflected in the transient photoelectron spectrum of the NO(2) (+) parent ion. Furthermore, Rydberg states are believed to be used as "stepping" states responsible for the rather narrow and well-separated photoelectron spectra in the NO(2) (+) parent ion. Slow statistical and fast direct fragmentation of NO(2) (+) after prompt photoelectron ejection is observed leading to formation of NO(+)+O. Fragmentation from both the ground state and the electronically excited a (3)B(2) and b (3)A(2) states of NO(2) (+) is observed. At short pump probe delay times, the dominant multiphoton pathway for NO(+) formation is a 3x400 nm+1x266 nm excitation. At long delay times (>500 fs) two multiphoton pathways are observed. The dominant pathway is a 1x400 nm+2x266 nm photon excitation giving rise to very slow electrons and ions. A second pathway is a 3x400 nm photon absorption to NO(2) Rydberg states followed by dissociation toward neutral electronically and vibrationally excited NO(A (2)Sigma,v=1) fragments, ionized by one 266 nm photon absorption. As is shown in the present study, even though the pump-probe transients are rather featureless the photoelectron-photoion coincidence images show a complex time varying dynamics in NO(2). We present the potential of our novel coincidence imaging machine to unravel in unprecedented detail the various competing pathways in femtosecond time-resolved multichannel multiphoton dynamics of molecules.

Abstract
A new method of simultaneously recording NO and NO2 concentrations in complex gas mixtures is described. This method is based on resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI), on time-of-flight mass analysis, and on monitoring the kinetic energy released upon dissociation of NO2. Its benefits are high speed and high flexibility. NO/NO2 analysis can therefore be combined with the simultaneous monitoring of other components. For instance, NH3 is a compound of interest when studying the chemical reactions of NO(x) in catalytic converters of combustion engines. The spectroscopic excitation schemes used for this new method are discussed in detail. Its reliability has been demonstrated by performing measurements at an industrial motor test facility. This novel technique performs well in comparison with conventional NO(x) analysis using chemiluminescence detection.

Abstract
The photodissociation of N(2)O at wavelengths near 130 nm has been investigated by velocity-mapped product imaging. In all, five dissociation channels have been detected, leading to the following products: O((1)S)+N(2)(X (1)Sigma), N((2)D)+NO(X (2)Pi), N((2)P)+NO(X (2)Pi), O((3)P) + N(2)(A (3)Sigma(+) (u)), and O((3)P) + N(2)(B (3)Pi(g)). The most significant channel is to the products O((1)S) + N(2)(X(1)Sigma), with strong vibrational excitation in the N(2). The O((3)P) + N(2)(A,B):N((2)D,(2)P) + NO branching ratio is measured to be 1.4 +/- 0.5, while the N(2)(A) + O((3)P(J)):N(2)(B) + O((3)P(J)) branching ratio is determined to be 0.84+/-0.09. The spin-orbit distributions for the O((3)P(J)), N((2)P(J)), and N((2)D(J)) products were also determined. The angular distributions of the products are in qualitative agreement with excitation to the N(2)O(D (1)Sigma(+)) state, with participation as well by the (3)Pi(v) state.

Abstract
Adiabatic potential energy surfaces for the six lowest singlet electronic states of N(2)O (X (1)A('), 2 (1)A('), 3 (1)A('), 1 (1)A("), 2 (1)A(") and 3 (1)A(")) have been computed using an ab initio multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) method and a large orbital basis set (aug-cc-pVQZ). The potential energy surfaces display several symmetry related and some nonsymmetry related conical intersections. Total photodissociation cross sections and product rotational state distributions have been calculated for the first ultraviolet absorption band of the system using the adiabatic ab initio potential energy and transition dipole moment surfaces corresponding to the lowest three excited electronic states. In the Franck-Condon region the potential energy curves corresponding to these three states lie very close in energy and they all contribute to the absorption cross section in the first ultraviolet band. The total angular momentum is treated correctly in both the initial and final states. The total photodissociation spectra and product rotational distributions are determined for N(2)O initially in its ground vibrational state (0,0,0) and in the vibrationally excited (0,1,0) (bending) state. The resulting total absorption spectra are in good quantitative agreement with the experimental results over the region of the first ultraviolet absorption band, from 150 to 220 nm. All of the lowest three electronically excited states [(1)Sigma(-)(1 (1)A(")), (1)Delta(2 (1)A(')), and (1)Delta(2 (1)A("))] have zero transition dipole moments from the ground state [(1)Sigma(+)(1 (1)A('))] in its equilibrium linear configuration. The absorption becomes possible only through the bending motion of the molecule. The (1)Delta(2 (1)A('))<--X (1)Sigma(+)((1)A(')) absorption dominates the absorption cross section with absorption to the other two electronic states contributing to the shape and diffuse structure of the band. It is suggested that absorption to the bound (1)Delta(2 (1)A(")) state makes an important contribution to the experimentally observed diffuse structure in the first ultraviolet absorption band. The predicted product rotational quantum state distribution at 203 nm agrees well with experimental observations.

Abstract
We propose an isotopic fractionation mechanism, based on photolytic destruction, to explain the 15N/14N and 18O/16O fractionation of stratospheric nitrous oxide (N2O) and reconcile laboratory experiments with atmospheric observations. The theory predicts that (i) the isotopomers 15N14N16O and 14N15N16O have very different isotopic fractionations in the stratosphere, and (ii) laboratory photolysis experiments conducted at 205 nanometers should better simulate the observed isotopic fractionation of stratospheric N2O. Modeling results indicate that there is no compelling reason to invoke a significant chemical source of N2O in the middle atmosphere and that individual N2O isotopomers might be useful tracers of stratospheric air parcel motion.
