Nozzle-cooled BrCl was excited with tunable laser radiation at selected wavelengths between 389 and 500 nm. The chlorine atomic fragments in their Cl*(2P1/2) and Cl(2P3/2) state were stated-selectively probed by resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization. The branching ratio (Cl*/(Cl + Cl*)) was measured as a function of the excitation wavelength. The relative Cl* yield reaches a maximum at around λphot = 460 nm. Decomposition of these branching ratios into Cl and Cl* photofragment yield spectra provides insight into the BrCl B-state 3П(0+) non-adiabatic dissociation dynamics. Our results suggest that the dissociation mechanism involves non-adiabatic transitions among 0+ potential energy curves.
