“…The multipliers, g x , in the above equation are the linear combination of the bipolar moments, β 0 k , which are given by
where b x can be calculated from the excitation-detection geometries and the angular momentum coupling factors defined by Dixon . In this experiment, the two different excitation-detection geometries described in the Experimental Section were employed, and the corresponding b values were obtained for the different rotational branch transitions . The bipolar moments,
(02),
(20),
(22),
(22) represent the rotational alignment, β μ J , translational anisotropy, β μ v (= 2
(20)), v −J, and μ− v − J photofragment vector correlations, respectively.…”
