Abstract

We report both measured and calculated rotationally resolved threshold photoelectron spectra for single-photon coherent VUV ionization of the X¹A₁ ground state of jet-cooled H₂O and H₂S. Agreement between the calculated and measured spectra is very encouraging. Both the H₂O and H₂S spectra show type a transitions which arise from odd angular momentum components of the photoelectron matrix element and are quite molecular in origin. These type a transitions, however, are much weaker in H₂S due to its more atomiclike character.
