Matsumi, M. Kawasaki, T. Sato, T. Kinugawa, T. Arikawa Title: Photodissociation of chlorine molecule in the UV region Journal/Source: Chem. Phys. Lett., 155 (4-5), 486-490, (1989); http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0009-2614(89)87191-X Data: Energy/Wavelength range: 308 nm; 351 nm Resolution: Temperature: Temperature dependence: Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: Chlorine molecules are photodissociated at 308 and 351 nm, in the first UVabsorption band that peaks at 335 nm. The resulting chlorine atoms are solely in the 2P 3/2 state. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
