Study Of Infrared Emission Spectroscopy For The B 1Δg- A 1Πu And B ′1Σg +- A 1Πu Systems Of C2, Wang Chen, Kentarou Kawaguchi, Peter F. Bernath, Jian Tang Feb 2016

Study Of Infrared Emission Spectroscopy For The B 1Δg- A 1Πu And B ′1Σg +- A 1Πu Systems Of C2, Wang Chen, Kentarou Kawaguchi, Peter F. Bernath, Jian Tang

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Thirteen bands for the B1Δg-A1Πu system and eleven bands for the B′1Σg +-A1Πu system of C2 were identified in the Fourier transform infrared emission spectra of hydrocarbon discharges. The B′1Σg + v = 4 and the B1Δg v = 6, 7, and 8 vibrational levels involved in nine bands were studied for the first time. A direct global analysis with Dunham parameters was carried out satisfactorily for the B1Δg-A1Πu system except for a …


Simultaneous Analysis Of The Ballik-Ramsay And Phillips Systems Of C2 And Observation Of Forbidden Transitions Between Singlet And Triplet States, Wang Chen, Kentarou Kawaguchi, Peter F. Bernath, Jian Tang Feb 2015

6229 lines of the Ballik-Ramsay system (b3Σg--a3Πu) and the Phillips system (A1Πu-X1Σg+) of C2 up to v = 8 and J = 76, which were taken from the literature or assigned in the present work, were analyzed simultaneously by least-squares fitting with 82 Dunham-like molecular parameters and spin-orbit interaction constants between the b3Σg- and X1Σg+ states with a standard deviation of 0.0037 cm-1 for the whole data set. As a …


Note: Improved Line Strengths Of Rovibrational And Rotational Transitions Within The X3Σ⁻ Ground State Of Nh, James S.A. Brooke, Peter F. Bernath, Colin M. Western Jan 2015

Note: Improved Line Strengths Of Rovibrational And Rotational Transitions Within The X3Σ⁻ Ground State Of Nh, James S.A. Brooke, Peter F. Bernath, Colin M. Western

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Recently, a line list including positions and transition strengths was published for the NH X3Σ rovibrational and rotational transitions. The calculation of the transition strengths requires a conversion of transition matrix elements from Hund’s case (b) to (a). The method of this conversion has recently been improved during other work on the OH X2Π rovibrational transitions, by removing an approximation that was present previously. The adjusted method has been applied to the NH line list, resulting in more accurate transition strengths. An updated line list is presented that contains all possible transitions with v′ and …
