The present work of this group includes studies of the long-            lived excited states of negative ions-atoms with one extra bound                electron hence a net negative charge.  The pattern of excited                   states of such ions differs significantly from those of the                     neutral atoms.  Their study allows an extra dimension of atomic                 structure to be explored.  These ions play important roles in a                 number of naturally-occurring reactions, so these studies also                  have immediate practical benefit.  This work will be continued.                         New experiments will study the energies and dissociation                mechanisms of highly excited ("Rydberg") states of simple                       molecules and molecular fragments.  The products of dissociation                will be detected and measured, to yield information on the                      excited states and the breakup mechanisms.
