A multicoincidence study of ionic fragmentation of methyl tiocyanate, CH3SCN involving S 2p electrons

Abstract

We report a study of the photon impact excitation and dissociation dynamics of CH3SCN exited at the S 2p level by using synchrotron radiation. Within our knowledge ionic fragmentation of photon excited CH3SCN has not been previously described. The transitions observed in the TIY spectrum around the S 2p edge shows an excellent agreement with the optical oscillator strengths derived from electron energy loss spectra recorded under electric dipole dominated conditions.3SCN exited at the S 2p level by using synchrotron radiation.
