Abstract:
Photoproduct signature: Irradiation of solid hydrogen near 3 K containing NO with vacuum‐UV light from synchrotron radiation yields new infrared absorption lines at 1241.7, 1063.6 and 726.2 cm?1 (see figure). These new lines are assigned to vibrational modes of t‐HNOH. This photoproduct is formed from electronically excited NO reacting with neighboring hydrogen in the solid sample.
