Abstract
Mass-resolved anion and cation partial-yield spectra following photoexcitation of CO2 have been recorded in the vicinity of the C 1s and O 1s thresholds. Anion production was found to be site specific: a weakproduction of O- was observed on the π* resonance near the C K edge, whereas both C- and O- fragments were observed near the O K edge. Due to suppression of the shape resonances that dominate the cross section above the core thresholds, the anion-partial-yield spectra at the O K edge reveal several previously unobserved electronic states. In addition, several cations such as CO2+ and O2+ were observed for the first time.
