title: Fragmentation of methyl chloride studied by partial positive and negative ion-yield spectroscopy.
abstract: The authors present partial-ion-yield experiments on the methyl chloride molecule excited in the vicinity of the Cl2p and C1s inner shells. A large number of fragments, cations produced by dissociation or recombination processes, as well as anionic species, have been detected. Although the spectra exhibit different intensity distributions depending on the core-excited atom, general observations include strong site-selective fragmentation along the C-Cl bond axis and a strong intensity dependence of transitions involving Rydberg series on fragment size.
