Abstract:
The predissociations of the E(1)Π state of CO are again studied. They include both the background predissociation attributed to the continuum of the A(1)Π state and the accidental predissociation due to the k(3)Π state. They are calculated using a coupled equations method. The three components of the k state are introduced. These predissociations are studied for different isotopologues and are shown to decrease with increasing reduced mass, in agreement with the experimental results of Ubachs et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 113, 547 (2000)].
