Absorption spectrum of nitrous acid for the ν1+2ν3 band studied with continuous-wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy and theoretical calculations

We present the high resolution absorption measurements of gaseous HONO at room temperature using continuous-wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy in the near-infrared region between 6017 and 6067 cm⁻¹ at a resolution of 1 pm (0.037 cm⁻¹). For the trans-HONO isomer an extensive analysis of the ν₁+2ν₃ combination band 6045.8089 cm^-1 was performed starting from the results of a previous study for the 1¹ and 3¹ vibrational states [Guilmot J-M, Godefroid M, Herman M. Rovibrational parameters for trans-nitrous acid. J Mol Spectrosc 1993;160:387-400]. The present combination band is perturbed because of the existence of several dark states of HONO which could not be identified unambiguously. The rotational constants achieved for the 1¹3² state deviate slightly from the values which are predicted from the rotational constants achieved in the previous studies for the 1¹ and 3¹ vibrational states of trans-HONO.     

Terahertz spectroscopy of oxygen, O2, in its Σg and Δ electronic states : THz Spectroscopy of O2

High precision rotational spectra of isotopic oxygen O₂ (with or ) in its electronic ground state have been measured in selected frequency regions between 0.4 and 2.0 THz. The main isotopic species, , was also investigated in its first excited electronic state . The new data, analyzed together with previous measurements, yielded improved spectroscopic parameters.     

The high-resolution far-infrared spectrum of methane at the SOLEIL synchrotron

As a tetrahedral molecule, methane has no permanent dipole moment. Its spectrum, however, displays faint absorption lines in the THz region, due to centrifugal distorsion effects. This is important for planetary applications since this region is used to measure methane concentration in some planetary atmospheres, in particular on Titan. Up to now, all measurements relied either on some old low resolution infrared absorption spectra, or on high resolution Stark measurements for low J values only. Even if these results have been reexamined recently [Wishnow EH, Orton GS, Ozier I, Gush HP. The distorsion dipole rotational spectrum of CH₄: a low temperature far-infrared study. J Quant Spectrosc Radiat Transfer 2007;103:102-17], it seemed highly desirable to obtain much more precise laboratory data.The high-intensity synchrotron radiation, combined with a 151.75±0.1 m optical path in a White cell and a Bruker IFS 125 HR FTIR spectrometer at the AILES beamline of SOLEIL, enabled us to record this very weak spectrum at high resolution for the first time. Spectra were obtained in the 50-500 cm⁻¹ wavenumber range at 296 K and 9.91, 20, 50 and 100 mbar with a resolution of 0.00074, 0.00134, 0.0034 and 0.0067 cm⁻¹ (FWHM of the sinc function), respectively. The rotational clusters are fully resolved and the good signal-to-noise ratio has enabled precise measurements of transition intensities (92 cold band lines and 96 Dyad-Dyad hot band lines, with normal abundance intensities in the range 2×10⁻²⁶-1×10⁻²⁴ cm⁻¹/(mol cm⁻²)), yielding an accurate determination of the dipole moment derivatives. Such results should allow a better determination of CH₄ concentration in planetary objects.     

Relaxation times and line widths of isotopically-substituted nitroxides in aqueous solution at X-band

Optimization of nitroxides as probes for EPR imaging requires detailed understanding of spectral properties. Spin lattice relaxation times, spin packet line widths, nuclear hyperfine splitting, and overall lineshapes were characterized for six low molecular weight nitroxides in dilute deoxygenated aqueous solution at X-band. The nitroxides included 6-member, unsaturated 5-member, or saturated 5-member rings, most of which were isotopically labeled. The spectra are near the fast tumbling limit with T₁∼T₂ in the range of 0.50–1.1 μs at ambient temperature. Both spin–lattice relaxation T₁ and spin–spin relaxation T₂ are longer for ¹⁵N- than for ¹⁴N-nitroxides. The dominant contributions to T₁ are modulation of nitrogen hyperfine anisotropy and spin rotation. Dependence of T₁ on nitrogen nuclear spin state m_I was observed for both ¹⁴N and ¹⁵N. Unresolved hydrogen/deuterium hyperfine couplings dominate overall line widths. Lineshapes were simulated by including all nuclear hyperfine couplings and spin packet line widths that agreed with values obtained by electron spin echo. Line widths and relaxation times are predicted to be about the same at 250 MHz as at X-band.     

Diode laser spectroscopy of ethylene overtones at 830 nm

A tunable diode laser spectrometer has been employed to examine the 3rd overtone absorption lines of C₂H₄ at around 12 000 cm⁻¹ (830 nm). The spectrometer sources are heterostructure AlGaAs tunable diode lasers operating “free-running”. By the aid of the wavelength modulation spectroscopy with the second harmonic detection technique and a Herriott type multipass cell 63 very weak absorption lines have been observed for the first time, with cross sections as low as 2 × 10⁻²⁶ cm²/mol, equivalent to . The self-broadening coefficient has been measured for one of the most intense lines.

可用于高速摄影脉冲氙灯的研究

为了研究储能电容初始电压、电极间距、充气压及灯管内径等条件对脉冲氙灯电流脉冲和发光脉冲的影响,在电极间距100~300mm、充气压13.33~53.32kPa、灯管内径6~12mm、储能电容初始电压1.75~4.25kV的条件下,分别测量了脉冲氙灯的电流脉冲和发光脉冲的变化状况。测量得到脉冲氙灯的电流脉冲宽度和发光脉冲宽度均在15~45μs之间。对比发现:储能电容初始电压较高有助于获得高峰值、窄脉宽且滞后时间短的电流脉冲;具有较高充气压或较长电极间距的脉冲氙灯其电流脉冲与发光脉冲的峰值较小、脉冲宽度较大,且发光脉冲滞后时间较长;较粗灯管内径虽然可以增加电流脉冲的峰值,但电流脉冲的宽度被增宽,发光脉冲峰值减小,发光脉冲宽度展宽,且延长了发光脉冲的滞后时间.

Based on a relativistic quark model approach, the transition properties of the first nucleon resonance △(1232), and the coupling constants gπNN, g△πN are investigated. Tvo different vays to remove the center of mass motion are considered. The results of the relativistic approaches with and without center ofmass correction are compared with those of nonrelativistic constituent quark model. Moreover, pion meson cloud effect on these calculated observables is explicitly addressed. Better results are obtained by taking the pion meson cloud into account.
