A Velocity Map Imaging setup to benchmark technologies enabling the study of new systems on ion-molecule reactions — •Patrick Strübin, Franziska Krammer, Tim Michaelsen, Jennifer Meyer, Atilay Ayasli, Björn Bastian, and Roland Wester — Institut für Ionen und Angewandte Physik, Universität Innsbruck, Austria

Our group studies the dynamics of ion-molecule reactions by crossed-beam Velocity Map Imaging (VMI) [1]. For neutral reactions there have been a lot of investigations on the influence of excited vibrational states prior to the reaction [2]. We are planning to extend this research to ion-molecule reactions. As a first step a new crossed-beam VMI setup has been built. It will be used for measurements to determine the fraction of molecular excitation in the neutral molecular beam by a tunable optical parametric oscillator laser.

Furthermore we will extend our research to metal ion reactions with hydrocarbons. To produce metal ions we will use a laser vaporisation source [3,4] attached to the VMI spectrometer. Here we present test measurements and design considerations for the new VMI spectrometer, the metal ion source and the laser excitation scheme.
