“…Moreover, in Figure 2, no spectrum related to the transition from CS 2 + (X ˜2Π g,1/2 ) could be found; this fact can be explained, at least, by the strong population of X ˜2Π g,3/2 (0,0,0) and the weak population of X ˜2Π g,1/2 (0,0,0) in the [3 + 1] REMPI process of the CS 2 at 483.2 nm. 15 Because the energy levels of B ˜2Σ u + related to the resonance peaks in Figure 2 are all less than the first dissociation limit (4.6 eV) to produce S + and the second dissociation limit (5.852 eV) to produce CS + , 2,3,8,16,17 two photons are needed to dissociate CS 2 + (X ˜2Π g,1/2 ). It means that the dissociation process via the B ˜2Σ u + r X ˜2Π g,3/2 transition of CS 2 + to produce CS + and S + is a [1 + 1] process.…”
