The electronic emission spectrum of the A³Π₀-X¹Σ⁺ and B³Π₁-X¹Σ⁺ transitions of Gallium monochloride molecule (⁶⁹GaCl) has been recorded on BOMEM DA8 Fourier transform spectrometer at an apodized resolution of 0.035 cm⁻¹. The rotational structure of the 0-0, 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2, bands belonging to A-X and 0-0, 0-1, 1-2, and 0-2 bands belonging to B-X transitions has been analyzed and equilibrium rotational constants for the X¹Σ⁺ and A³Π₀ states have been obtained. For the first time we are able to determine the Λ-doubling constants in the v = 0 and 1 levels of the B³Π₁ state.     

Elastic constants of solids and fluids with initial pressure via a unified approach based on equations-of-state

The second and third-order Brugger elastic constants are obtained for liquids and ideal gases having an initial hydrostatic pressure p₁. For liquids the second-order elastic constants are C₁₁ = A + p₁, C₁₂ = A − p₁, and the third-order constants are C₁₁₁ = −(B + 5A + 3p₁), C₁₁₂ = −(B + A − p₁), and C₁₂₃ = A − B − p₁, where A and B are the Beyer expansion coefficients in the liquid equation of state. For ideal gases the second-order constants are C₁₁ = p₁γ + p₁, C₁₂ = p₁γ − p₁, and the third-order constants are C₁₁₁ = −p₁(γ² + 4γ + 3), C₁₁₂ = −p₁(γ² − 1), and C₁₂₃ = −p₁ (γ² − 2γ + 1), where γ is the ratio of specific heats. The inequality of C₁₁ and C₁₂ results in a nonzero shear constant C₄₄ = (1/2)(C₁₁ − C₁₂) = p₁ for both liquids and gases. For water at standard temperature and pressure the ratio of terms p₁/A contributing to the second-order constants is approximately 4.3 × 10⁻⁵. For atmospheric gases the ratio of corresponding terms is approximately 0.7. Analytical expressions that include initial stresses are derived for the material ‘nonlinearity parameters’ associated with harmonic generation and acoustoelasticity for fluids and solids of arbitrary crystal symmetry. The expressions are used to validate the relationships for the elastic constants of fluids.     

MRCI study on spectroscopic and molecular properties of four low-lying electronic states of the BO radical

The potential energy curves (PECs) of four low-lying electronic states of the BO radical, including two ²Σ⁺ and two ²Π states, have been studied using the full valence complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method followed by the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach in combination with the cc-pV5Z basis set for internuclear separations from 0.05 to 2.0 nm. The effect on the PECs by the relativistic correction has been taken into account. With these PECs, the spectroscopic parameters (T_e, D₀, D_e, R_e, ω_e, ω_ex_e, α_e and B_e) of two main isotopologues (¹¹B¹⁶O and ¹⁰B¹⁶O) have been determined. These parameters have been compared in detail with those of previous investigations reported in the literature, and excellent agreement has been found between the available data and the present results. By solving the radial Schrödinger equation of nuclear motion, 60 vibrational states for the ¹¹B¹⁶O(X²Σ⁺), 60 for the ¹⁰B¹⁶O(X²Σ⁺), 66 for the ¹¹B¹⁶O(A²Π) and 64 for the ¹⁰B¹⁶O(A²Π) are predicted for the non-rotating molecule. For each vibrational state of the ¹¹B¹⁶O(X²Σ⁺), ¹⁰B¹⁶O(X²Σ⁺), ¹¹B¹⁶O(A²Π) and ¹⁰B¹⁶O(A²Π), the vibrational level G(υ), inertial rotation constant B_υ and centrifugal distortion constant D_υ have been determined. Comparison with the available data shows that the present molecular constants are reliable and accurate. The ro-vibrational levels have been calculated for the X²Σ⁺ and A²Π states of two main species for future laboratory research.     

Ab initio calculations on the ground and excited states of InI

Potential energy curves (PECs) of the ground and the low-lying excited states of the InI molecule are computed using the internally contracted multireference singles and doubles configuration interaction with the Davidson correction (ic-MR-CISD + Q) method based on the relativistic effective core potentials (RECPs). The spectroscopic constants are obtained, including the excitation energy (T _e), the equilibrium bond distance (R _e), the dipole moment (μ_e) and the vibrational constants (ω_e and ω_e). Finally, we predict the transition dipole moments, the radiative lifetimes, and the Franc-Condon factors for the transitions of A³Π₀+ ? X¹Σ₀ ⁺ and B³Π^l ? X¹Σ₀ ⁺,. The results reveal that A³Π₀+ and B³Π_l are long-lived states with the lifetimes being of the order of microseconds.     

Molecular theory ofK-vacancy production in heavy-ion-atom collisions at small impact parameters

1sσ vacancy production is calculated by approximating the 1sσ molecular wave function with an atomic 1s wave function for a chargeZ(R) centered at a distanceh(R) from the heavier nucleus.h(R) andZ(R) are determined by minimizing the 1sσ electronic energy. Previous calculations with the atomic semi-classical approximation (h=0,Z(R)=Z ₂, the target atomic number) showed that the probability of making CuK vacancies in 0.5- to 2-MeV/a.m.u. H⁺, D⁺, and He⁺+Cu collisions can be written asP(θ)=A(1+Bcosθ), whereθ is the scattering angle andA andB are constants forθ?10°. Although the recoil and dipole excitation contributions toP(θ) (which interfere destructively in the atomic theory) are independently smaller in the molecular calculations, similarB values are obtained.     

High-resolution infrared and theoretical study of gaseous 1,2,5-selenadiazole in the 600-1400 cm range

The Fourier transform gas-phase IR spectrum of natural isotopic 1,2,5-selenadiazole, C₂H₂N₂Se, has been recorded with a resolution of ca. 0.0025 cm⁻¹ in the wavenumber region 600-1400 cm⁻¹. The three a-type bands, ν₂ (A₁), ν₄ (A₁), ν₅ (A₁), the two b-type bands ν₁₁ (B₁), ν₁₂ (B₁), and the c-type band ν₁₄ (B₂) for each of the isotopologues C₂H₂N₂⁸⁰Se and C₂H₂N₂⁷⁸Se have been analyzed using the Watson model. Ground state rotational and quartic centrifugal distortion constants as well as upper state spectroscopic constants have been obtained from the fits. The rotational constants, harmonic and anharmonic frequencies, and vibration-rotation constants (alphas, ) have been predicted by quantum chemical calculations using a cc-pVTZ basis at the MP2 and B3LYP methodology levels, and compared with the present experimental data. Although the rotation constants are marginally closer to experiment from the MP2 calculations, in general the B3LYP frequencies and alphas are closer to experiment.

A high-resolution infrared study of five bands of 1,2,5-thiadiazole in the range 750-1250 cm, together with ab initio and DFT studies

The Fourier transform gas-phase IR spectrum of 1,2,5-thiadiazole, C₂H₂N₂S, has been recorded with a resolution of ca. 0.003 cm⁻¹ in the wavenumber region 750-1250 cm⁻¹. Five fundamental bands in this region, ν₄ (A₁), ν₅ (A₁), ν₁₁ (B₁), ν₁₃ (B₁), and ν₁₄ (B₂), have been analysed by the Watson Hamiltonian model to yield ground-state rotational and quartic centrifugal distortion constants as well as upper-state spectroscopic constants. A global perturbation of the ν₄ level is explained by Fermi resonance with the 2ν₁₅ level which has been located from its resonance effect. Rotational constants, harmonic and anharmonic frequencies have been calculated using a cc-pVTZ basis, at the MP2 and B3LYP methodology levels, and compared with the experimental data.     

Deperturbation of the N2+ first negative group B2Σu+-X2Σg+

Twelve bands of the N₂⁺B²Σ_u⁺-X²Σ_g⁺ system, including v_B = 0–6 and v_X = 0–8, are reanalyzed. All effects of B²Σ_u⁺ ～ A²Π_u perturbations are explicitly considered. Despite the use of high precision (0.01 cm^?1) line measurements, no evidence for a perturber other than A²Π_u is obtained. Deperturbed constants for the B²Σ_u⁺ and X²Σ_g⁺ states are derived. The deperturbation is shown to be self-consistent and complete (excluding effects of the C²Σ_u⁺ state) by examining semiempirical relationships of the perturbation matrix elements with the spin-rotation constants of the B and X states and atomic spin-orbit parameters. A number of previous analyses of transitions involving the v_B = 3 and 5 levels are found to be incorrect.     

Rotational analysis of 4730 Å band of MgCl

Magnesium chloride was excited in a high frequency discharge source and the 4730 Å band was photographed at an inverse dispersion of 0.48 Å mm^?1 in a two meter plane grating spectrograph. The rotational analysis of the band has been carried out and the molecular constants of the upperB ²Σ⁺ state are reported for the first time. Observation of rotational isotopic shifts due to Cl³⁷ supports the rotational analysis. The electronic transition involved is identified to beB ²Σ⁺ →A ²Π_1/2(a) (inverted).     

High-resolution infrared and theoretical study of the fundamental bands ν2, ν4 and ν9 and the c-Coriolis interacting dyad ν5, ν14 of 1,3,4-thiadiazole

The Fourier transform gas-phase IR spectrum of 1,3,4-thiadiazole, C₂H₂N₂S, has been recorded with a resolution of ca. 0.003 cm⁻¹ in the 800-1500 cm⁻¹ spectral region. Five fundamental bands ν₂(A₁; 1391.9 cm⁻¹), ν₄(A₁; 964.4 cm⁻¹), ν₅(A₁; 894.6 cm⁻¹), ν₉(B₁; 821.5 cm⁻¹), and ν₁₄(B₂; 898.4 cm⁻¹) have been analysed using the Watson model. Ground state rotational and quartic centrifugal distortion constants as well as upper state spectroscopic constants have been obtained from fits. The ν₄ and ν₉ bands are unperturbed while a strong c-Coriolis resonance perturbs the close-lying ν₅ and ν₁₄ bands. This dyad system has been analysed by a model including first and second order c-Coriolis resonance using the theoretically predicted Coriolis coupling constant . The ν₂ band is strongly perturbed by a local resonance, and we obtain a set of spectroscopic parameters using a model including second order a-Coriolis resonance with the inactive ν₁₀ + ν₁₄ band. Ground state rotational and quartic centrifugal distortion constants, anharmonic frequencies, and vibration-rotational α-constants predicted by quantum chemical calculations using a cc-pVTZ basis and B3LYP methodology, have been compared with the present experimental data, where there is generally good agreement.     

Franck-Condon factors and absolute transition probabilities for the if (B3Π0+-X1Σ+) transition

Improved spectroscopic constants have been used to calculate Rydberg-Klein-Rees (RKR) potentials and Franck-Condon factors for the IF(B³Π₀₊-X¹Σ⁺) transition. The Franck-Condon factors are generally in good agreement with previously calculated values, but differ by as much as 30% for transitions from higher levels of the B-state. Several experimentally measured relative transition moment functions have been evaluated and the best scaled, so that the total transition probability calculated for each B-state vibrational level, A(v'), matched measured values. The scaled function was then used to calculate individual transition probabilities, A(v',v), for the vibronic transitions.     

High resolution electronic band spectral studies of the GaI molecule

The emission band spectrum of the GaI molecule, lying in the region 3800–4200A and attributed to two overlapping transitions (A0⁺-X0⁺ and B1-X0⁺), has been studied under high resolution in the 3rd order of a 10.5 m Ebert grating spectrograph at a dispersion of 0.18/mm. Isotopic shifts of the ⁷¹GaI and ⁶⁹GaI molecules are calculated for various bands. They are found to agree with experimentally measured values, thereby confirming the vibrational assignments. The reversal of shading of various branches, belonging to one band and leading to the formation of extra heads, has been investigated. Making use of the rotational constants of the ground state (X0⁺) obtained from microwave spectral studies, the rotational constants of the excited A0⁺ and C1 states have been evaluated. Electronic configurations, potential energy curves and dissociation products are discussed.     

Transition Probabilities in the BΣ-XΣ and the BΣ-AΠ Electronic Systems of MgO

Transition probabilities for the B¹Σ⁺-X¹Σ⁺ and the B¹Σ⁺-A¹Π electronic systems are presented for v=0-4 and J=0-150 in each electronic state. The functional form of the electronic transition moment for the B-X transition is taken from published ab initio results. The B-A moment is assumed to have the same form and is scaled using empirical branching ratio data. The R_e(r) are used with Rydberg-Klein-Rees (RKR) wavefunctions to calculate transition probabilities for v=0-4 and J=0-150. The RKR potentials were calculated based on empirical spectroscopic constants.     

The high-resolution infrared spectrum of pyrrole between 900 and 1500 cm revisited

The Fourier transform gas-phase infrared spectrum of pyrrole, C₄H₅N, has been recorded with a resolution of ca. 0.003 cm⁻¹ in the 900-1500 cm⁻¹ spectral region. Four fundamental bands, ν₈(A₁; 1016.9 cm⁻¹), ν₂₃(B₂; 1049.1 cm⁻¹), ν₇(A₁; 1074.6 cm⁻¹), ν₂₀(B₂; 1424.4 cm⁻¹) and the overtone band 2ν₁₆(A₁; 962.7 cm⁻¹) have been analysed using the Watson model. The ν₈ and 2ν₁₆ bands are unperturbed; the ν₇ and ν₂₃ bands are locally perturbed, while the ν₂₀ band is globally perturbed by weak c-Coriolis resonance. Upper state vibrational term values, and rotational and centrifugal distortion constants, have been obtained from fits using S-reduction and I^r-representation as well as A-reduction and III^r-representation. A set of ground state rotational and centrifugal distortion constants using A-reduction was obtained from a simultaneous fit of ground state combination differences from all five bands and previous microwave and millimetre-wave data.     

Experimental determination of the radiative lifetime of the 0, 1, 2, 3 vibrational levels of the B2Σ+ state in CO+

By observing the decay of intensity of vibrational bands of the B²Σ⁺ - X²Σ⁺ and B²Σ⁺ - A²Π_i systems, the lifetimes of the 0, 1, 2, 3 vibrational levels of the B²Σ⁺ state of CO⁺ has been measured. The values are respectively τ=(56.8±1.3), (61.6±0.9), (66.9±2.2) and (70.5±2.9) ns. The variation of the function R_e(r?) cannot be obtained from the lifetime values of the B²Σ⁺ state.     

Dynamic deformation of light nuclei in excited states

An important property—the dynamic deformation of B* light aligned nuclei—is investigated for the nuclear reactions A(x, y)B* → γ + B ₀ by measuring the y-γ correlations. Dynamic deformation is determined from the orientation tensors of multipolar moments. Normalization constants of the contributions from even-rank orientation tensors are determined from the condition of coincidence between dynamic and static deformations of the B* nucleus for θ _y = 0°. Experimental dynamic deformations of ¹²C(2⁺) nuclei caused by the inelastic scattering of α particles and deuterons are determined, along with the ¹⁰Be(2⁺) nuclei formed in reaction ⁹Be(d, p)¹⁰Be(2⁺). It is shown that the dynamic deformation of the aligned nuclei depends on how they are formed and their structure, and evolves substantially when the angle θ _y is varied.

Using the level crossing technique the ratios and absolute values of the hyperfine structure (hfs) constants of the levelsz ⁴F_9/2 andz ⁴F_7/2 of the configuration 3d ⁷4s4p of Co I were measured:z ⁴ F _9/2: ¦A¦=(811±12)MHz; ¦B¦=(48±93) MHz;B/A=?0.06±0.11 A>0; B<0z ⁴ F _7/2: ¦A¦ = (659 ±11)MHz; ¦B¦=(33±84)MHz;B/A=?0.05±0.13 A>0; B<0. In addition the hfs constants of three other excited levels of Co I could be determined by optical methods:z ⁴ F _9/2:A=525±26 MHz;B=200 MHzy ⁴ F _9/2:A=300±30 MHz;B=?500 MHzy ⁴ G _11/2:A=315±20 MHz;B=400 MHz. The experimental results are compared with known experimental and also with theoretical values which where calculated using the parametric potential method.     

Rotational Analysis of the 1–4 Band of the B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+ System of 14C16O+

ABSTRACT

High-resolution emission spectrum of the 1–4 band of the B ²Σ⁺–X ²Σ⁺ transition of ¹⁴C¹⁶O⁺ was observed for the first time by conventional emission spectroscopy. The band spectrum was excited in a water-cooled Geissler lamp filled with commercial gaseous carbon monoxide enriched in about 80% of the radiocarbon ¹⁴C. A rotational analysis has been carried out and obtained molecular constants have been merged with previously published data for the B ²Σ⁺–A ²Π_i and A ²Π_i–X ²Σ⁺ transitions. The principal equilibrium constants for the ground X ²Σ⁺ state obtained from this work are ω_e = 2121.7726(98), ω_e x _e = 13.9055(27), B _e = 1.815290(30), α_e = 1.6594(33) × 10^?2, and γ_e = ? 0.377(73) × 10^?4 cm^?1. Also, presently known experimental equilibrium molecular constants of the X ²Σ⁺ states of the CO⁺ isotopic molecules are summarized and isotopic dependence of the B _e and ω _e constants is discussed.
