| Abstract
| - Picosecond dynamics initiated by electron photodetachment in Cl-···H2O and Br-···H2O complexes is exploredusing classical Wigner trajectories which correctly map the initial quantum vibrational state of the systems.The three lowest potential energy surfaces of the neutral clusters reached after electron photodetachment areconstructed by the ab initio Fock-Space Coupled Cluster Method and then quantitatively fitted to a Diatomics-in-Molecule Model which also allows for a simple inclusion of spin−orbit interactions. Because of largedifferences between the shapes of the anionic and neutral potential energy surfaces, and due to the presenceof light hydrogen atoms, an unusual dynamical behavior is observed. Although the vertical photodetachmentprocess places the systems above the dissociation threshold, the clusters do not dissociate directly. Instead,relatively long-lived vibrational resonances are observed. This is due to a strong excitation of the nondissociative(internal) water rotation and only a weak excitation of the dissociative intermolecular stretch uponphotodetachment. Implications of the observed dynamics for the interpretation of experimental vibrationallyresolved ZEKE spectra are discussed.
