Schematic representation of the experimental set-up. A pulsed beam of NO radicals is passed through a 2.6-meter long Stark decelerator, and is scattered with a pulsed beam of rare gas atoms at a 90 ° beam intersection angle. The inelastically scattered NO radicals are state-selectively ionized without excess recoil energy using two pulsed lasers. The ions are subsequently detected using a standard velocity map imaging arrangement
