Photodissociation Processes

Photodissociation Processes is a chemical reaction mechanism in astrochemical reaction networks whereby a molecule is decomposed into smaller fragments through the absorption of a photon, distinguished from other dissociation processes by its dependence on electromagnetic radiation as the energy source.
