INTRODUCTION
Molecular photoionisation dynamics presents a challenge both from
experiment and theory. New insight has come from the development and
application of (i) novel experimental techniques, such as ZEKE and
related pulsed-field ionization spectroscopies, anion photodetachment,
time-resolved probing, angular photoelectron measurements, advanced
coincidence techniques and (ii) new theoretical approaches to
quantitatively understand the ionisation dynamics. There is an interest
in advancing this burgeoning field and very actively studied
applications come from van der Waals and hydrogen bonded molecular
clusters including intra-cluster reactions, molecular Rydberg states
including their time-resolved dynamics and their stability in fields,
Multichannel Quantum Defect and scattering theory, Rydberg state
tagging, molecular and cluster anion photodetachment, radicals, charge
transfer, and correlated two-electron ionisation processes.
The Discussion is intended to bring together practitioners of the
broadest range of photoionisation, photodetachment and charge transfer
experiments, spectroscopists, molecular physicists and theoreticians
working on angular momentum transfer, scattering theory, electron
correlation and on non-Born-Oppenheimer effects in Rydberg states. The
aim is to establish state-of-the-art applications in chemistry and
molecular physics, while focussing on the immediate future prospects of
this whole area of research.

PROGRAMME
The Discussion will comprise 4 sessions and a poster session, the first
session commencing after lunch on Monday 3 April 2000, and the final
session ending at lunchtime on Wednesday 5 April 2000. The papers
listed below will be presented and discussed during the course of the
meeting although not necessarily in the stated order. The time at which
each paper will be given will depend on their grouping and on the length
of the discussion periods.
