The first part of the report concerns itself with studies on photoionization, ionizing energy transfer and vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy of olefins. In the second part of the report, semi-empirical methods of calculation have been examined and applied to predict the spectra and ionization potentials of some organo-metallics. The third part of the report contains a basic contribution towards understanding the mechanism of interaction of radiation with matter as well as the interaction between molecules in the condensed phase. The mechanism of the phosphorescence emission is understood and the effects of environmental perturbations is examined. Theoretical and experimental examination of the origin of optical rotation has been carried out and reported.
