Abstract
Electric field studies have been made to determine certain electronic excited state properties of several small ring compounds. These properties include excited state dipole moment, excited state mean polarizability and direction of the transition moment. The electric field method utilizes intense externally applied electric fields to effect changes in the absorption profile due to orientation of polar gaseous compounds. The resulting electric field data permits determination of the properties indicated. The studies have concentrated on the lower energy Rydberg absorptions to help characterize these states in comparison to the higher energy intravalent transitions. In addition, differences in these excited state properties ire noted for the {\underline s}, {\underline p}, and {\underline d} Rydberg transitions.
