Fig. (6) Probability distribution for excitations of the (3HeT)+ ion populated the in β-decay of gaseous T2 [86]. The figure combines results from the calculations of excitation to the electronic bound states [87] and to the electronic continuum [88] of (3HeT)+. The electronic ground state is populated in 57% of the decays, 29% of the decays end in the excited electronic states and remaining 14% lead to the electronic continuum. The rotational-vibrational excitations of the molecular ion in its ground electronic state are shown in the insert. The mean energy of these excitations is 1.7 eV with the energy spread (FWHM) of about 0.4 eV. The electronic excitations of the (3HeT)+ ion starting at about 20 eV are shown in the lower part of the figure.
