abstract：:The photodetachment of Br(-), I(-) and OH(-) in aqueous solution is studied by 2- and 3-pulse femtosecond spectroscopy. The UV excitation leads to fast electron separation followed by formation of a donor-electron pairs. An additional repump pulse is used for secondary excitation of the intermediates. The 3-pulse tech...
