Using a crossed-beam technique with the mass-spectrometric analysis of the collision products, the processes of dissociative ionization-induced fragmentation of the glycine (C2H5NO2) molecule have been studied. The main emphasis has been given to the production of the CH4N+ fragment. A special procedure applied gave the values of the appearance potential for this fragment of 10.1 ± 0.1 eV as well as the ionization threshold for the parent glycine molecule (8.1 ± 0.1 eV), which are in fairly good agreement with the known results of other studies.

Crossed beams of electrons and In + ions were used to measure the relative emission cross-sections of the ionization-with-excitation process of the In 2+ ion laser transitions at λ185.0 nm and λ153.3 nm from the threshold up to 120 eV. A pronounced structure is observed for both energy dependences in the region from the threshold up to 80 eV. The structure results mostly from the contributions of cascade transitions from both 4d 10 nl ordinary and 4d 9 5snl Beutler states of the In 2+ ion as well as the excitation-autoionization process. It was discovered that, contrary to the Cd + ion case, the relative emission cross-section of the 4d 9 5s 2 2 D 5/2 → 4d 10 5p 2 P 3/2 In 2+ ion transition is smaller than that of the 4d 9 5s 2 2 D 3/2 → 4d 10 5p 2 P 1/2 In 2+ ion transition in the whole investigated region.
