Abstract

The comment of Billy et al.¹ on our paper about the dynamics of the B and A states of chlorine² emphasizes mainly two points: a) our results about the radiative decay rate of the B state of Cl₂ are incorrect, because our experimental system is unable to measure the true long lifetimes of this state; b) both A Π3(1u) and Π1(1u) states contribute to the Coriolis predissociation in the B state, in contradiction with our mechanism, which excludes the Π1(1u) state.
