The dynamic behavior of the even parity Rydberg states of molecular hydrogen is examined by RIS-TOF spectroscopy. The autoionization and predissociation yields of individual s and d Rydberg states are detected separately. This is accomplished by first exciting the molecular hydrogen to the B (v=O,J) state by tunable narrow band VUV radiation. This prepares the molecular hydrogen for the next excitation step into the s and d Rydberg series using tunable UV radiation. The s and d Rydberg series are scanned from high principle quantum numbers (n=20) to well above the ionization limit. Then the H{sup +} and H{sub 2}{sup +} products of the processes of autoionization, induced electric field ionization and predissociation are monitored separately. We can observe the effects of the perturbing states on the dynamics of the highly excited Rydberg states.
