Comments: The photodissociation of trans-dichloroethylene (trans-DCE) was studied using an ArF excimer laser at 193 nm. 
Acetylene, chloroacetylene and hydrogen chloride are observed as products, but the chlorine molecule is not observed. The 
yields are determined to be 0.47 ± 0.10 and 0.35 ± 0.05 for acetylene and chloroacetylene, respectively.
