We present mass-correlated rotational alignment spectroscopy, based on the optical excitation of a coherent rotational quantum wave and the observation of temporal wave interferences in a mass ...
To identify molecules on Earth or in outer space, scientists typically record the spectrum of light absorbed -- each molecule has its own unique spectrum. CH5+, consists of a central carbon atom with ...
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 313, No. 1513 (Oct. 21, 1969), pp. 149-167 (19 pages) Model theoretical calculations have been made of ...
THE absorption spectra of polyatomic molecules are usually so complicated that an analysis of their rotational fine structure seems impossible. We have therefore tried if the magnetic rotation spectra ...
B.Sc., Ph.D.(U.C.Lond.), D.Sc.(Lond.), F.R.S.C., F.R.S. The aim of my research is to understand non-covalent interactions of closed-shell molecules. The focus is on ...
Infrared spectroscopy is a standard technique, which depends upon the interaction between infrared radiation and the vibrating dipole moments of molecules. Except for homonuclear diatomics and noble ...
It may now be possible to begin interpreting the detailed rotational-vibrational CH5+ spectra previously recorded by other researchers, thanks to the work of a group of theoretical chemists at Queen's ...
