Difference in cooling dynamics between photo-excited C6- and C6H-

• Laser-induced electron detachment of C6- and C6H- stored in an ion storage ring was observed respectively, focusing attention onto the delayed processes with the time constants up to several milliseconds. We found the drastic difference in the decay profiles of photo-excited C6- and C6H- that is, C6- decayed much faster than C6H-. The unexpected fast decay of C6- indicates that it is governed by the radiative cooling with electronic transitions rather than vibrational nor depletion cooling.
