Dissociative Electron Attachment to Polyatomic Molecules - III : Ammonia

Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the dissociative electron attachment process in Ammonia. Kinetic energy and angular distributions of H^{-} and NH_{2}^{-} fragment anions across the two well known resonances at 5.5 eV and 10.5 eV are reported. The angular distributions show deviation of axial recoil approximation akin to that observed in water.
