This unique laser-based instrumentation will enable resonance-                  enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy to be used                 for the first time for the mass selective in situ detection of                  several key reaction intermediates in high temperature                          combustion.  REMPI techniques enable the detection of several                   important intermediate species that are not easily monitored by                 other laser-based noninstrusive methods.                                                                                                                        This instrumentation, not yet available at any other laboratory,                will provide a unique opportunity for the direct monitoring of                  such key reaction intermediates as CH3, CH2, C2O, C2H, and HCO in               high temperature flames at sub part-per-million sensitivity                     levels.  Such methods for efficient, controlled combustion,                     without contamination of environment from harmful by-products,                  are urgently needed to meet increasing demands for energy and for               the safe disposal of hazardous wastes.
