We examined the relative ionization and fragmentation probabilities of C{sub 60} after excitation by monochromatized synchrotron radiation in the energy range of 18-280 eV. The energy dependence of the relative cross sections of C{sub 60}{sup q+} (q=1-4) and the associated fragments C{sub 60-2n}{sup q+} (n=1-6 for q=2,3 and n=1,2 for q=4) are analyzed. We present the ionization and appearance energies for those ions and fragments as well as the partial cross sections for the C{sub 60} ions.
