In this project funded by the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Sanov will combine femtosecond spectroscopy with photoelectron imaging to monitor the evolution of molecular orbitals in the course of chemical reactions. The initial systems to be studied include isolated and hydrated sulfur-containing molecular anions, and cluster anions. These are chosen for their practical importance and for serving as prototypes for the development of the new methodology. Photodissociation and unimolecular decomposition, dynamics at conical intersections, microscopic solvation, wave packet evolution, and bimolecular reactions in ionic clusters will be investigated. The results of this research will find immediate application in modeling the structure and dynamics of negative ions and solutions. Many important chemical processes involve ionic reactions, and the reactivity is affected strongly by interactions with the environment. In this research cluster ions are used as model micro-solutions for the studies of elementary processes relevant to biological and environmental chemistry. The results will provide insight into how the intermolecular interactions affect the behavior of electrons and chemical bonding. Photoelectron imaging experiments will be incorporated in the undergraduate Physical Chemistry program as a way of providing the students with hands-on research experience. A fast-track Internet-based mechanism for publishing the results of student research will be developed. Students will be trained in research techniques in preparation for advanced studies and for entry into the scientific/technical workforce.

在这个由化学部实验物理化学计划资助的项目中，Sanov将联合收割机飞秒光谱与光电子成像相结合，以监测化学反应过程中分子轨道的演变。最初的系统进行研究，包括孤立和水合含硫分子阴离子，簇阴离子。选择这些方法是因为它们的实际重要性，并作为开发新方法的原型。本课程将探讨离子团簇中的光解离与单分子分解、锥形交叉处的动力学、微观溶剂化、波包演化与双分子反应。 这项研究的结果将立即应用于模拟负离子和溶液的结构和动力学。许多重要的化学过程涉及离子反应，并且反应性受到与环境相互作用的强烈影响。 在这项研究中，团簇离子被用来作为模型微观溶液的研究有关的生物和环境化学的基本过程。这些结果将有助于深入了解分子间相互作用如何影响电子和化学键的行为。光电子成像实验将被纳入本科物理化学课程，为学生提供实践研究经验。 将建立一个基于互联网的快速公布学生研究成果的机制。学生将接受研究技术培训，为深造和进入科学/技术工作队伍做准备。
