This is a process whereby an electron is removed from a molecule in its ground or an excited state so rapidly that a [[Positive Ion|positive ion]] is produced without change in the positions or momenta of the atoms. The resultant ion is often in an excited state. | This is a process whereby an electron is removed from a molecule in its ground or an excited state so rapidly that a [[Positive Ion|positive ion]] is produced without change in the positions or momenta of the atoms.
