Pair of papers in PCCP

We have two new papers published online in PCCP this week.

Criegee intermediate dynamicsDiiodomethane photochemistryThe first is another collaborative paper with UCI colleague Prof. Benny Gerber and his University of Helsinki team, that follows up on our work on the spectroscopy of the simplest Criegee intermediate, CH2OO. It describes trajectory calculations that explore the excited state dynamics.

The second paper describes a velocity-map ion imaging study of the photodissociation dynamics of diiodomethane (CH2I2). Experimental measurements are interpreted with the help of high-level ab initio calculations by Dr. Grant Hill of the University of Sheffield.  Read it here: 10.1039/c6cp01063f
