Abstract

Synopsis: The effect of nitrogen substitution and isomerization in naphthalene under swift charged particle collision is investigated. The ratios of single ionization to capture cross-section are measured for the case of naphthalene and two of its nitrogen-containing derivatives. The propensity of HCN loss in quinoline and isoquinoline is shown to alter systematically from evaporation dominated to randomization dominated process in the case of monocation. The influence of plasmon excitation process in polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycles (PANHs) is identified for the first time.
