    Isotope shift studies of the ultra-violet and visible bands of P<SUP>16</SUP>O and P<SUP>18</SUP>O

    The spectra of P16O and P18O were excited in sealed discharge tubes containing neon (2-3 mm. pressure), oxygen gas enriched to 65 per cent. of 18O and trace amounts of phosphorus vapour and photographed on a 3 m. grating spectrograph at a dispersion of 2.5 &#197;/mm. Isotope shift studies in the &#946;-bands confirmed the earlier vibrational scheme of Curryet al. and showed conclusively that the red as well as the violet degraded bands belonged to the same &#946;-system. The present studies of isotope shifts also confirmed the vibrational assignments of the extensive ultraviolet bands involving the 2&#8721;--X2&#928; transition and the &#947;-bands (A2&#8721;+-X2&#928;). In the case of the visible bands, they provided evidence for the first time that the bands at 5585&#197;, 5962&#197; and 6385&#197; belonged to one system and involved 0-0, 0–1 and 0–2 transitions respectively

    The &#946;- and &#947;-band systems of <SUP>14</SUP>NS and <SUP>15</SUP>NS

    Get PDF
    The spectra of 14NS and 15NS molecules are obtained in a 2450 mc./s. microwave oscillator discharge. Vibrational assignments of the &#946;- and &#947;-systems are studied in more detail. Several hitherto unrecorded bands are satisfactorily explained as belonging to higher v', v" levels in the Deslandres schemes of both &#946;- and &#947;-systems. The observed isotope shifts (14NS-15NS) provide confirmatory evidence for the proposed vibrational analysis. In the case of the &#947;-system, the v'=2 level of the upper state appears to be strongly perturbed showing a shift of about 38 cm.&#8722;1 from the expected position. In the &#946;-system, the isotopic shifts in the band-heads involving the v'=0 and 1 levels of the 2&#916;5/2 of the upper state show small deviations from expected values. The reality of these small deviations is established beyond doubt by the occurrence of the effect on the 0–0 sub-band which exhibits the isotopic head in a wavelength direction opposite to the expected one

    The 0-0 band of the A 3&#928;inv-X 3&#8721;- system of ND was excited in an electrodeless microwave oscillator (2450 Mc./s.) discharge and photographed on a 6·6 meter concave grating spectrograph in the second order at a dispersion of 0·56 A/mm. Twenty-five out of the predicted twenty-seven branches have been identified in the rotational structure of the 0-0 band. From a rotational analysis, the following rotational constants have been determined: (i)X 3 &#8721; - state- B0&#8719;(cm.&#8722;1) D0&#8719;(cm.&#8722;1) (2&#955; + &#978;) (cm.&#8722;1) 8.7757 4.68 &#215; 10-4 &#8722;1.8356.

    The A2&#928;u state of O2+ was earlier established as an inverted state contrary to previous assumptions. The rotational analysis of a few more bands of the A-X system of O2+ has now been completed. These studies show that the spin-orbit coupling constant A in the A2&#928;u state gradually varies with the vibrational quantum number &#957; and is found to be positive for &#957;&#8805;6. It has also been observed that the spia-rotation interaction is not negligible in the A 2 &#928;u state. The spin splitting constant &#947; is reported for various vibrational levels of this electronic state

    The ratios of the widths of K levels of heavy elements with atomic number 70 to 92 have been calculated with relativistic wave functions, retardation, screening and field theoretical corrections to relativistic energy. The calculated values have been compared with the available observed data and good agreement has been obtained

The proportion of males to females is not significantly different at 5 % probability from the theoretical 1:1 ratio. The condition index, expressed as percentage of wet flesh weight in total weight varied from 7.6 to 16.1 with an average of 12.1. The parameters of the Von Bertalanffy growth equation in M. meretrix0X6 Loo =99.1 mm, K •= 0.3221 per year and t = -0.0745 year. The life-span is estimated at 7.8 years. The various dimensional and length-weight relationships are given. Also the environmental conditions of the clam bed are described

    Statistical-mechanical theory of ultrasonic absorption in molecular liquids

    Full text link
    We present results of theoretical description of ultrasonic phenomena in molecular liquids. In particular, we are interested in the development of microscopical, i.e., statistical-mechanical framework capable to explain the long living puzzle of the excess ultrasonic absorption in liquids. Typically, ultrasonic wave in a liquid can be generated by applying the periodically alternating external pressure with the angular frequency that corresponds to the ultrasound. If the perturbation introduced by such process is weak - its statistical-mechanical treatment can be done with the use of the linear response theory. We treat the liquid as a system of interacting sites, so that all the response/aftereffect functions as well as the energy dissipation and generalized (wave-vector and frequency dependent) ultrasonic absorption coefficient are obtained in terms of familiar site-site static and time correlation functions such as static structure factors or intermediate scattering functions. To express the site-site intermediate scattering functions we refer to the site-site memory equations in the mode-coupling approximation for the first-order memory kernels, while equilibrium properties such as site-site static structure factors, direct and total correlation functions are deduced from the integral equation theory of molecular liquids known as RISM or one of its generalizations. All the formalism is phrased in a general manner, hence the obtained results are expected to work for arbitrary type of molecular liquid including simple, ionic, polar, and non-polar liquids.Comment: 14 pages, 1 eps-figure, RevTeX4-forma
