Abstract
Coulomb-exploded fragments of , , , , and , following stripping of high-energy molecular ions in a thin carbon foil, were recorded, first in plastic sheet detectors, and in later experiments with a new image-intensifying and digitizing system. All of the ions studied in detail, and , appear to be formed in states of high bending excitations perhaps close to the dissociation limit. The intranuclear separations for the species were found to be similar to that of normal neutral , 2.5(1) Å; and for the NCO species, rather small, 2.0(1) Å.
