In typical environment, the ground state of rare gas atom dimers is electronically non-binding, but if their closed outershell electrons are excited, dimers can readily form transient bound molecules, excimers.

For instance, in several wavelength ranges it is necessary to measure the sample under vacuum or in a rare gas environment because gases in the atmosphere have interfering absorption features.
33.
The excimer formation is a critical step in energy-efficient conversion of the atomic electron excitation / ionization energy into the radiation energy in rare gas plasma for the excimer lasers.
34.
For instance, if one replaces any one of the atoms in a triatomic molecule with a rare gas atom, there will be a drastic change in the molecule s properties.
35.
It is the same for Ewing et Brau, the oldest study of the noble gas halides which is based on the analogy of the excited rare gas with alkali metals.
36.
Abella was known for his work with laser coherent transients, where photon echo techniques are used to probe metastable excited states in rare gas mixtures such as helium, neon, and argon.
37.
Many experiments have been carried out on the MPI of rare gas atoms using strong laser pulses, through measuring both the total ion yield and the kinetic energy of the electrons.
38.
The results are shown in Table 29 . This shows that the rate constants increase regularly when the vibrational level, v, of is higher and the rare gas, Rg, is heavier.
39.
The electric field generated by the time varying magnetic field drives the mercury-rare gas discharge in the same way the discharge is driven by the electric field in a conventional fluorescent lamp.

Table 1 shows the jellium model calculation for van der Waals constant " C v " and dynamical image plane " Z " 0 of rare gas atoms on various metal surfaces.
