High‐resolution translational energy spectroscopy is an effective means of obtaining detailed state‐selective information, permitting systematic investigation of spin conservation in collisional processes. In this paper, we examine collisional excitation of one selected singlet (N 2 ) and one non‐singlet (O 2 ) target by a variety of projectile ions, providing a kaleidoscope of assorted effects.
