Significant Progress in Water Photochemistry Research

The experimental group led by Dr.Yang Xueming,supported by the National Science Foundation of China,conducted its investigation on the photochemistry of water in the gas phase at the full quantum state resolved level,by using of the high resolution H-atom Rydberg tagging technique,in combination with a tunable vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) light source indigenously developed in Dr.Yang’s laboratory.In collaborations with Prof.Richard Dixon,a fellow of Royal Society in UK,at the University of Bristol, they have made significant progress in the study of water photochemistry in the entire VUV region.Recently, Yang Xueming,Yuan Kaijun and Richard Dixon were invited to write a comprehensive review on
