热辐射对热团簇衰变率和丰度的影响

本文量化了辐射冷却对单分子衰变速率、热簇以及非特定激发能量的分子的影响.检测出两种不同的区域,可以通过发射光子的能量大小进行定义,并根据光子发射速率常数和颗粒的热性质确定它们之间的边界.此外,通过丰度光谱计算了相当于小光子能量的连续冷却情况.两种不同区域分别是连续性冷却和单分子衰变的单光子猝灭.辐射效应通过重新定义每个单独的团簇用于进行蒸发的时间进行参数化,可用有效辐射时间常数来表示.

Influence of Thermal Radiation on Hot Cluster Decay Rates and Abundances

The influence of radiative cooling on the unimolecular decay rates of free, hot clusters and molecules with unspecified excitation energies is quantified. Two different regimes, dedined by the magnitude of the energy of the photons emitted, are identified and the boundary between them is given. The boundary is determined in terms of the photon emission rate constants and thermal properties of the particles. Also the abundance spectra are calculated for the continuous cooling case, corresponding to small photon energies. The two regimes correspond to continuous cooling and single photon quenching of the unimolecular decay. The radiative effect can be parametrized by a redefinition of the time each individual cluster has available to undergo evaporation, expressed by an effective radiative time constant.
