	abstract = {Molecular and dissociative photoionization branching ratios and photofragment appearance potentials of BrCN have been determined using dipole (e, e + ion) spectroscopy at equivalent photon energies from the first ionization threshold up to 160 eV. Absolute partial photoionization oscillator strengths (cross sections) for the molecular and dissociative photoions have been obtained from the triple product of the photofragment branching ratio, the photoionization efficiency, and the previously reported absolute photoabsorption oscillator strength {[}Olney et al., Chem. Phys. 201 (1995) 505]. Information on the Coulomb explosion decay channels of doubly and triply charged molecular ions has been obtained from photoion-photoion coincidence (PIPICO) spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation as a light source in the 40-130 eV photon energy range. While stable doubly charged ions are formed in both the valence and the Br 3d regions no stable triply charged ions are observed, However, the PIPICO measurements detect time correlated singly and doubly charged fragment species resulting from Coulomb explosion of triply charged ions which are first formed at the Br 3d excitation threshold and throughout the ionization continuum by triple autoionization and double Auger type processes. The experimental results provide information on the dipole induced breakdown pathways resulting from valence shell and Br 3d ionization processes in BrCN.},
