• ; synchrotron radiation; threshold photoelectron spectroscopy; Introduction Organic radicals are known to be ubiquitous reactive intermediates in chemistry, biology and material science [1]. Studies on isolated radicals conducted in our group [2] yield their intrinsic properties, which are essential for
