In the present work we report state-resolved detection of BrO(X (II)-I-2) radicals generated in reactive collision processes using two-photon excitation with subsequent monitoring of the vacuum-ultraviolet fluorescence. BrO(X (II)-I-2) product excitation spectra extending in the spectral range between 348 and 363 nm were obtained from both the reaction O(D-1)CF3Br and Br(P-2(3/2)) + O-3 The spectra indicate the existence of a hitherto unobserved high-lying radiative C state at an energy of around 56 000 cm(-1).
