Absolute cross sections and mass-spectral cracking patterns are reported for ionization of the free radicals CD/sub 3/ and CD/sub 2/. Such data for free radicals have previously been unmeasured because of their high reactivity. In this work, a beam of pure free radicals is generated by charge-transfer neutralization of a fast ion beam and is ionized by a crossed electron beam. With this approach, complete collection of mass-selected parent and fragment ions is obtained, permitting measurement of quantitative cross sections.
