Abstract

A statistical model serving to estimate the branching ratios in the dissociative recombination of polyatomic molecular ions is described. Simple phase-space assumptions are employed separately for the electronic capture step and the subsequent dissociation and yield predictions in good agreement with existing data on [Formula Presented] Also the vibrational state populations of molecular fragments can be obtained and for [Formula Presented] are found to agree well with recent measurements.
