Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Electronic States and Spectra of TeH and TeLi

Gas-phase emission spectra of the hitherto unknown free radical TeLi have been measured in the NIR range with a Fourier-transform spectrometer. The emissions were observed from a fast flow system in which tellurium vapor in argon carrier gas was passed through a microwave discharge and mixed with lithium vapor in an observation tube. Two systems of blue-degraded bands were measured at high spectral resolution in the ranges 8000-9000 and 5700-6700 cm(-1) and vibrational and rotational analyses were performed. In order to aid in the analysis of the experimental data, a series of relativistic configuration interaction calculations has been carried out to obtain potential curves for the low-lying states of TeLi and the isovalent TeH and also electric dipole transition moments connecting them. As in the TeH system, the ground state of TeLi is found to be X(2)Pi(i), but with a remarkably smaller spin-orbit splitting. The TeLi calculations indicate a strongly bound A(2)Sigma(+) state, while in TeH the analogous state is computed to lie significantly higher at approximately 32 000 cm(-1), and it is strongly predissociated. Based on the theoretical analysis, the observed TeLi band systems are assigned to the transitions A(2)Sigma(+)(A1/2)-->X(1)(2)Pi(3/2)(X(1)3/2) and A(2)Sigma(+)(A1/2)-->X(2)(2)Pi(1/2)(X(2)1/2). Analysis of the spectra has yielded the molecular constants (in cm(-1)) X(1)(2)Pi(3/2):omega(e)=457.49(3), omega(e)x(e)=2.482(9), B(0)=0.408908(8); X(2)(2)Pi(1/2): T(e)=2353.44(3), omega(e)=456.28(4), omega(e)x(e)=2.635(8), B(0)=0.414954(8), p(0)=1.00637(4); A(2)Sigma(+): T(e)=8574.64(2), omega(e)=437.81(3), omega(e)x(e)=2.581(8), B(0)=0.423903(8), p(0)=-0.19915(2), where the numbers in parentheses are the standard deviations of the parameters. Comparison of the isovalent TeLi and TeH systems emphasizes that the difference in bonding character (ionic in TeLi vs covalent in TeH) is responsible for qualitative differences in the electronic spectra of these two molecules.

Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Electronic States and Spectra of BiNa

Gas-phase emission spectra of the hitherto unknown free radical BiNa have been measured in the NIR range with a Fourier transform spectrometer. The emissions were observed from a fast-flow system in which bismuth vapor in argon carrier gas was passed through a microwave discharge and mixed with sodium vapor in an observation tube. Two systems of blue-degraded bands observed in the ranges 8900-9800 and 7200-7800 cm(-1) were measured at high spectral resolution and vibrational and rotational analyses were performed. To aid in the analysis of the experimental data, a series of relativistic configuration interaction calculations has been carried out to obtain potential curves for the low-lying states of BiNa and also electric dipole transition moments connecting them. As in the isovalent BiH system, the ground state of BiNa is found to be X(3)Sigma(-) with a spin splitting of about 1769 cm(-1). The first excited state is A(3)Pi, and the observed band systems are assigned to the transitions A(3)Pi(A(2)0(+)) --> X(3)Sigma(-)(X(1)0(+), X(2)1). Comparison with earlier work on the isovalent BiH system emphasizes that the relative weakness of the varsigma MO in BiNa is responsible for qualitative differences in the electronic spectra of these two systems.

Experimental and theoretical study of the electronic states and spectra of PbLi

Gas phase emission spectra of the hitherto unknown free radical PbLi have been measured in the NIR range with a Fourier-transform spectrometer. The emissions were observed from a fast flow system in which lead vapor in argon carrier gas was passed through a microwave discharge and mixed with lithium vapor in an observation tube. Five electronic transitions have been found in the wavenumber range 3800-10 000 cm⁻¹. Bands from two excited states to the ground state were measured at high spectral resolution such that rotational analyses could be performed and accurate molecular parameters derived. In order to aid in the analysis of the experimental data, a series of relativistic configuration interaction calculations has been carried out to obtain potential curves for the low-lying states of PbLi and also electric dipole transition moments connecting them. As in the lighter molecules of this group, CLi and SiLi, the ground state of PbLi is found to be 3/2) with a spin splitting of about 2000 cm⁻¹. The first excited state is (A 1/2), and two observed band systems are assigned to the transitions A→X₁ and A→X₂. Two more excited states, (B 3/2) and C 1/2, are identified from the observed spectra with the help of the computed data, and their spectroscopic constants are determined. In contrast to PbH and PbF, the ab initio results indicate a very complicated low-energy electronic structure for the PbLi radical, with 19 bound electronic states calculated to lie below 3 eV.     

Design of Closed-Cycle MHD Generator with Nonequilibrium Ionization and System

A closed-cycle MHD generator topping a steam bottoming plant is analyzed. The combined power plant involves three working fluids in three loops. The MHD loop is investigated more thoroughly since it is the least conventional of the three. Equations are developed to determine the geometric and thermodynamic variables throughout the MHD channel for inlet conditions of mass flow, temperature, pressure, and velocity. Limiting design parameters are output power, channel length, channel aspect ratio, Hall parameter, and interaction parameter. The basic closed-cycle MHD loop working fluid can consist of either argon or helium seeded with cesium. Both non-equilibrium ionization produced by the elevation of the electron temperature from joule heating of the plasma and thermal ionization are considered. Equations used to calculate the electrical conductivity and the elevation of electron temperatures are derived. These equations are coupled with the one-dimentional differential equations applicable to an MHD generator. The chief interest is in determining those MHD channel conditions which result in the most thermodynamically efficient MHD-steam plantcombination. Thus an overall heat balance forthe system is required. Equations are developed to calculate the gas properties at the various stations of the closed loop and to determine the overall efficiency of the cycle. A rather flexible computer program written in Fortran is used to solve the MHD generator equations and to make the overall heat balance. Some typical results presented demonstrate the feasibility and adaptability of the analysis for optimizing the thermal efficiency and the sensitivity of thermal efficiency to various parameters.     

An Improved Method for Calculating Zeta-Potentials from Measurements of the Electrokinetic Sonic Amplitude

The surface electric properties of the commercially available silica, Monospher 1000 (Fa. Merck), have been studied by conductivity and ESA (electrokinetic sonic amplitude) experiments. It could be shown that accounting for the contribution of the stagnant layer to surface conductivity is indispensable in the interpretation of electrokinetic data at low ionic strength. A general method has been put forward which allows to take into account the total, experimentally accessible surface conductivity in the evaluation of ESA data of moderately concentrated suspensions. This includes additional conductivity measurements which serve for the independent estimation of the total relative surface conductivity. The resulting zeta-potentials are clearly higher than those obtained after neglecting the contribution of the stagnant layer to surface conductivity. In addition, the ionic mobilities of potassium and magnesium in the hydrodynamically stagnant layer have been investigated in some detail. It has been found that the ionic mobility of potassium is of the same order of magnitude as in the bulk solution while the mobility of magnesium is significantly reduced.
