Zusammenfassung:
The H-3(+) ion is the simplest polyatomic molecule. Apart from its
fundamental role as a benchmark system for theoretical calculations, it
has attracted a lot of attention as one of the main drivers of an active
interstellar ion-neutral chemistry network. H-3(+) spectroscopy has
contributed greatly to astrochemistry, and experiment and theory have
both developed tremendously throughout the years, following the
ground-breaking work by Oka. To date, the highest-lying identified
H-3(+) transitions were obtained using an action spectroscopy technique,
employing stored H-3(+) ions in a cryogenic ion trap. This approach was
pioneered by Schlemmer and Gerlich for N-2(+) , and is widely used today
- in one form or another - for spectroscopic studies of interstellar
ions. In this work, we explore the possibility to extend the range for
H-3(+) action spectroscopy even further, into the regime above 20000
cm(-1), in order to bridge the gap to the rich pre-dissociation spectrum
of states near the dissociation limit that was obtained by Carrington et
al. and remains unassigned after more than 30 years. (C) 2021 The
