Abstract

A 2-MeV beam of H2+ molecular ions was excited by 193-nm photons from an ArF laser. The H+ photofragments were energy analyzed by an electrostatic analyzer, and the potential energy released in the H2+ rest frame was determined. The released energy corresponds to absorption from low-lying vibrational levels of the 1sσg ground state to the 2pσu state of H2+.
