Exciting new pathways! The two photoelectron spectra measured by resonance‐enhanced ionization via the C 2 Π state of nitric oxide at different laser intensities are interpreted by assuming an intensity‐dependent mixing between the C 2 Π and B 2 Π states. We show that the unexpected peaks at high intensity (shown in the graphic) result from another resonant path.
