User's Guide for ERB 7 Matrix. Volume 1: Experiment Description and Quality Control Report for Year 1
The Nimbus 7 ERB MATRIX Tape is a computer program in which radiances and irradiances are converted into fluxes which are used to compute the basic scientific output parameters, emitted flux, albedo, and net radiation. They are spatially averaged and presented as time averages over one-day, six-day, and monthly periods. MATRIX data for the period November 16, 1978 through October 31, 1979 are presented. Described are the Earth Radiation Budget experiment, the Science Quality Control Report, Items checked by the MATRIX Science Quality Control Program, and Science Quality Control Data Analysis Report. Additional material from the detailed scientific quality control of the tapes which may be very useful to a user of the MATRIX tapes is included. Known errors and data problems and some suggestions on how to use the data for further climatologic and atmospheric physics studies are also discussed
Reduced hierarchy equations of motion approach with Drude plus Brownian spectral distribution: Probing electron transfer processes by means of two- dimensionalcorrelation spectroscopy
We theoretically investigate an electron transfer (ET) process in a
dissipative environment by means of two-dimensional (2D) correlation
spectroscopy. We extend the reduced hierarchy equations of motion approach to
include both overdamped Drude and underdamped Brownian modes. While the
overdamped mode describes the inhomogeneity of a system in the slow modulation
limit, the underdamped mode expresses the primary vibrational mode coupled with
the electronic states. We outline a procedure for calculating 2D correlation
spectrum that incorporates the ET processes. The present approach has the
capability of dealing with system-bath coherence under an external
perturbation, which is important to calculate nonlinear response functions for
non-Markovian noise. The calculated 2D spectrum exhibits the effects of the ET
processes through the presence of ET transition peaks along the
axis, as well as the decay of echo signals.Comment: 28 pages, 8 figures; J. Chem. Phys. 137 (2012
