Abstract

Evidence for the presence of the 4Σu resonance in dissociative electron attachment to O2 is obtained for the first time from the angular distribution measurement of O ions in the entire 2π angles using a novel experimental technique employing velocity map imaging. This observation, while settling the question of the presence of this state observed in inelastic vibrational excitation of O2, calls for fresh calculations on the lifetime of the resonance. It may also impact the interpretations of the negative ion formation from O2 in clusters and in a condensed state.
