This is a combined theoretical and experimental project in                      Physical Chemistry to study and describe the excited electronic                 states of atoms and molecules.  In the experimental part,                       polarized light will be used to first excite and then ionize                    atoms and the molecules.  The angular and energy distributions                  of the photoelectrons will be analyzed to determine the degree                  of electron correlation in the initially excited electronic                     state(s) of atoms.  For atoms, the theoretical thrust of this                   research is to adequately describe this correlation.  Once                      atoms are adequately described, the phenomenological theory of                  the angular and energy distributions of the photoelectrons will                 be extended to molecules and experimentally tested in an                        investigation of the angular and energy distributions of                        photoelectrons emitted from molecules.  The goal of this                        research is to better understand the dynamics of the                            interactions between an electron and the molecular core to                      which it is bound, hence to better understand chemical bonding.
