As the H-atoms exchange their positions within a small organic molecular ion, and roam about the ionic parent as an H-atom or an H 2 molecule, it is possible that some of them may end up getting lost leaving behind a lighter molecular ion but with the same charge. For a small doubly charged molecular ion, one would naively expect that it would dissociate into two singly charged fragments in order to reduce its potential energy, a process usually termed as Coulomb explosion (CE). The emission of one or more neutral particles from such a dication is quite unexpected as this process effectively reduces the trapping volume for the positive charge. Nonetheless, if neutral particles are lost, the fate of this daughter ion will then depend on its structure and the internal energy stored in it. If the neutral particle is an H-atom/H 2 molecule or C 2 H 2 molecule, all these species may carry some internal energy during their emission. The daughter ion may thus either stabilize or dissociate into two or more fragments.
