Dipartimento di Chimica

1) Study of photodissociation dynamics of alkyl radicals by means of UV photofragment translational spectroscopy. Determination of the primary photodissociation channels and their relative abundances. These studies are directed to systems of interest in the chemistry of Earth's and planetary atmospheres like Titan. 2) Study of bimolecular reaction dynamics using the crossed molecular beam technique. Measurement of differential cross sections of the primary reactive channels and their relative abundances. Interests facing the combustion chemistry of hydrocarbons.
