Abstract

This review outlines some of the exciting new developments in the experimental study of the dynamics of elementary bimolecular reactions. Emphasis is placed on the 'new wave' of stereodynamical studies of photon initiated bimolecular reactions, using Doppler-resolved polarised laser pump and probe techniques, A few key studies, which are discussed in some detail, provide a taste of what has already been achieved, as well as a hint of the new experiments that can be anticipated in the near future.
