Photoabsorption in formaldehyde: Intensities and assignments in the discrete and continuous spectral intervals
Theoretical investigations of total and partial‐channel photoabsorption cross sections in molecular formaldehyde are reported employing the Stieltjes–Tchebycheff (S–T) technique and separated‐channel static‐exchange (IVO) calculations. Vertical one‐electron dipole spectra for the 2b_2(n), 1b_1(π), 5a_1(σ), 1b_2, and 4a_1 canonical molecular orbitals are obtained using Hartree–Fock frozen‐core functions and large basis sets of compact and diffuse normalizable Gaussians to describe the photoexcited and ejected electrons. The calculated discrete excitation spectra provide reliable zeroth‐order approximations to both valence and Rydberg transitions, and, in particular, the 2b_2(n) →nsa_1, npa_1, npb_2, and nda_2 IVO spectra are in excellent accord with recent experimental assignments and available intensity measurements. Convergent (S–T) photoionization cross sections in the static‐exchange (IVO) approximation are obtained for the 15 individual partial channels associated with ionization of the five occupied molecular orbitals considered. Resonance features in many of the individual‐channel photoionization cross sections are attributed to contributions from valencelike a_1σ^∗ (CO), a_1σ^∗ (CH), and b_2σ^∗ (CH)/π_y^∗ (CO) molecular orbitals that appear in the photoionization continua, rather than in the corresponding one‐electron discrete spectral intervals. The vertical electronic cross sections for ^1A_1→^1B_1, ^1B_2, and ^1A_1 excitations are in generally good accord with previously reported CI (S–T) predictions of continuum orbital assignments and intensities, although some discrepancies due to basis‐set differences are present in the ^1B_1 and ^1B_2 components, and larger discrepancies apparently due to channel coupling are present in the ^1A_1→^1A_1 cross section. Partial‐channel vertical electronic cross sections for the production of the five lowest parent‐ion electronic states are found to be in general agreement with the results of very recent synchrotron‐radiation photoelectron branching‐ratio measurements in the 20 to 30 eV excitation energy interval. Most important in this connection is the tentative verification of the predicted orderings in intensities of the partial‐ channel cross sections, providing support for the presence of a strong ka_1σ^∗ (CO) resonance in the (5a_1^(−1))^2A_1 channel. Finally, the total vertical electronic cross sections for absorption and ionization are in general accord with photoabsorption measurements, photoionization–mass–spectrometric studies, and the previously reported CI (S–T) calculations. Although further refined calculations including vibrational degrees of freedom and autoionization line shapes are required for a more precise quantitative comparison between theory and experiment, the present study should provide a reliable zeroth‐order account of discrete and continuum electronic dipole excitations in molecular formaldehyde
The phonological heritage of the scientists of the XX century: a linguistic and historiographical review
A great attention is paid to the linguistic-historiographic analysis of the works of the Moscow, Prague and Saint Petersburg phonological schools’ representatives, which were dedicated to the problem of the language phonemic syste
SPECIFICITY OF ARCHITECTONICS AND ARTISTIC IMAGE IN CIRCUS REPRESENTATION
The article analyzes the specific features of the construction of the circus composition and its stage representation. The constituent factors and characteristics of architectonics are determined: theme, idea, style, genre, set of stunt parts, aesthetics, musical accompaniment, decoration − light, costumes. The artistic means are clarified: the creation of a circus composition, its entire process, from ideas and themes, to practicing tricks, musicality, dance, plastic and acting, as well as to a dress rehearsal and stage performance.Key words: Circus direction, composition, architectonics, trick, circus art, circus genres

Reactions of C+ + Cl-, Br-, and I--A comparison of theory and experiment.
Rate constants for the reactions of C+ + Cl-, Br-, and I- were measured at 300 K using the variable electron and neutral density electron attachment mass spectrometry technique in a flowing afterglow Langmuir probe apparatus. Upper bounds of <10-8 cm3 s-1 were found for the reaction of C+ with Br- and I-, and a rate constant of 4.2 ± 1.1 × 10-9 cm3 s-1 was measured for the reaction with Cl-. The C+ + Cl- mutual neutralization reaction was studied theoretically from first principles, and a rate constant of 3.9 × 10-10 cm3 s-1, an order of magnitude smaller than experiment, was obtained with spin-orbit interactions included using a semiempirical model. The discrepancy between the measured and calculated rate constants could be explained by the fact that in the experiment, the total loss of C+ ions was measured, while the theoretical treatment did not include the associative ionization channel. The charge transfer was found to take place at small internuclear distances, and the spin-orbit interaction was found to have a minor effect on the rate constant
THE INFLUENCE OF CYCLING INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE ECONOMY OF THE REGION
The development of production and economic activity in those sectors of the economy and those types of economic activity that are directly dependent on the service of tourists, is an integral, system-forming form of influence on the development of related industries. Thus, it is possible to achieve the effect of the multiplier effect of tourism on the development of other sectors and sectors of the economy. Carrying out an assessment of the multiplier effect makes it possible to more clearly define the importance of tourism for the country's economy. Based on this information, it is possible to further develop programs of state support for tourism, improve tourism infrastructure, competently use and reproduce tourist resources
Resonant ion-pair formation in electron recombination with HF^+
The cross section for resonant ion-pair formation in the collision of
low-energy electrons with HF^+ is calculated by the solution of the
time-dependent Schrodinger equation with multiple coupled states using a wave
packet method. A diabatization procedure is proposed to obtain the electronic
couplings between quasidiabatic potentials of ^1Sigma^+ symmetry for HF. By
including these couplings between the neutral states, the cross section for
ion-pair formation increases with about two orders of magnitude compared with
the cross section for direct dissociation. Qualitative agreement with the
measured cross section is obtained. The oscillations in the calculated cross
section are analyzed. The cross section for ion-pair formation in electron
recombination with DF^+ is calculated to determine the effect of isotopic
substitution.Comment: 12 pages, 12 figure
