Abstract: | The electron beam fluorescence technique was developed to measure the rotational level population in the ground state of a carbon monoxide molecule. The data on rotational transition probabilities under ionization–excitation of CO (X1Σ+) into the CO+ (B2Σ+) state by high energy electrons are presented, which noticeably differ from those predicted by the dipole excitation model. A flow in a free jet was used to obtain the experimental data in a low temperature rotationally equilibrium gas target. The probability matrix is represented in a compact form corresponding to the sudden approximation model. |
