The nu(sub 6), nu(sub 7), nu(sub 8), and nu(sub 10) Bands of HO2NO2

Two new fundamental vibration-rotation bands have been observed for HO2NO2 and assigned. They are nu(sub 7) at 648 1/cm and nu(sub 8) at 466 1/cm. On the basis of these assignments the previously observed bands at 722, 801.5, and 919 1/cm are assigned to nu(sub 10), nu(sub 7) + nu(sub 12), and 2 nu(sub 8), respectively. A partial rotational analysis of the atmospherically relevant nu(sub 6) band has been carried out, and the effects of tunneling, Coriolis interactions, and hot bands on the rotational structure have been characterized.The band origin derived from this analvsisis 8O2.54(sub 3) 1/cm.

The nu(sub 2) and 2nu(sub 2) - nu(sub 2) bands of N-14 (16)O2: Electron Spin-Rotation and Hyperfine Contact Resonances in the (010) Vibrational State

High-resolution Fourier transform spectra covering the 720-9-10/ cm spectral region have been used to perform a reanalysis of the 2nu(sub 2) band ((010) - (000) vibrational transition) together with the first analysis of the nu(sub 2) - nu(sub 2) hot band of nitrogen dioxide ((020)-(010) vibrational transition). The high-quality spectra show that, for numerous nu(sub 2) lines, the hyperfine structure is easily observable in the case of resonances due to the hyperfine Fermi-type operator. By performing a full treatment of the spin-rotation and of the hyperfine operators, a near line list of the nu(sub 2) band (positions and intensities) has been generated, and it is in excellent agreement with the experimental spectrum. Also, a thorough analysis of the -2nu(sub 2) nu(sub 2) hot band has been performed leading to an extended set of new (020) spin-rotation levels, These levels, together with the (100), (020), (001) spin-rotation levels deduced previously from the analysis of thenu(sub 1), 2nu(sub 2), and nu(sub 3) cold bands performed in the 6.3 - to 7.5 microns spectral range were least-squares fitted, allowing one to derive a new set of vibrational band centers and rotational. spin-rotation, and interaction constants for the {(100)(020)(001)} interacting states of N-14(16)O2.

Diode laser measurements of the band strengths of nu(3) and nu(6) in (C-12)H3D

A diode laser spectrometer has been used to measure line strengths for 143 transitions in the nu(6) fundamental band of (C-12)H3D near 9 microns. These line-strength measurements have been used to derive a band strength for nu(6) and nu(3). The band strength derived for nu(6) is 61.7 + or - 1.8/sq cm/atm and that for nu(3) is 49.3 + or - 1.4/sq cm/atm at 295 K.

nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 combination band of S-32 O2-16.

The infrared-active vibration-rotation band nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 of sulfur dioxide has been measured with moderately high spectral resolution. Quantum number identifications of spectral lines were made by comparison with theoretically computed spectra which include the effects of centrifugal distortion. The band center for nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 was determined to be 2499.60 plus or minus 0.10 per cm. An absolute band intensity has also been measured in this work, and the magnitude of the dipole moment derivative was evaluated.

Nu sub 1 plus nu sub 3 combination band of SO2

The infrared-active vibration-rotation combination band nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 of sulfur dioxide was measured with moderately high spectral resolution. Quantum number identifications of spectral lines were made by comparison with theoretically computed spectra which include the effects of centrifugal distortion. Relative line intensities were also calculated. The band center for nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 was determined to be 2499.60 + or - 0.10/cm.

Fourier transform spectrum of nu-5 and nu-8 bands of propyne

The nu-5 and nu-8 bands of propyne have been reinvestigated using a FTS spectrum between 900 and 1000/cm with a resolution of 0.005/cm. About 1500 lines have been assigned. Some perturbations are clearly evident. Molecular parameters of nu-5 = 1 and nu-8 = 1 levels were determined.

High-resolution line-intensity measurements of the nu-4 + nu-5 band of acetylene

A diode-laser spectrometer was used to measure individual R-branch line strengths in the (nu-4 + nu-5) combination band of C2H2. A total band strength of S(V) = 63 + or - 2 kayser/cm atm was found for the normal isotopic composition of C2H2. Broadening parameters for several R-branch lines were determined with N2 and He as the broadening gases.

Linestrengths of the nu(2) and nu(4) bands of (C-12)H4 and (C-13)H4

Absorption spectra recorded on the high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer at Kitt Peak National Observatory/National Solar Observatory were used to measure individual line strengths of the nu(2) and nu(4) bands of (C-12)H4 and (C-13)H4. The measurements were used to obtain expressions that could be used to correctly predict individual line strengths through five orders of magnitude of absorption strength and high values of J-prime. Transition strengths were modeled using the dyad formalism of two interacting bands and a seven-term second-order dipole-moment expansion. The successful fitting of these data indicates that the method can be used to model measurements of 2- to 5-percent precision even at high values of J. For remote sensing applications, the present prediction of the dyad spectrum represents a substantial improvement.

Intensities and broadening coefficients for the Q branch of the 4nu-2 - nu-1 + nu-2 (471.511/cm) band of CO2

Absolute intensities for the Q-branch of the 4nu-2 - nu-1 + nu-1/2 (20,003-11,101) band in CO2 were measured for the first time. Measurements were performed for lines Q10 to Q28, at temperatures ranging from 385 to 426 K, for pressures from 3 to 40 torr, using our long wavelength tunable diode laser spectrometer. The combination of tunable diode lasers, a White cell, and a blocked impurity band detector made it possible to obtain signal to noise ratios greater than 1000 in the 471/cm spectral region, with about 3 x 10 exp -4/cm spectral resolution. The band strength was found to be 8.6(2) x 10 exp -25 cm/molec at 296 K, and the Hermann-Wallis factor was determined. Comparison with the values listed in the HITRAN 92 data base are presented. Self-, N2- and O2-broadening coefficients were also measured.

Identification of the HNO3 3 nu(sub 9) - nu(sub 9) band Q branch in stratospheric solar occultation spectra

The spectroscopic identification for the HNO3 3 nu(sub 9) - nu(sub 9) band Q branch at 830.4/cm is reported based on 0.01/cm resolution solar occultation spectra of the lower stratosphere recorded by the Atmospheric Trace Molecule Spectroscopy (ATMOS) Fourier transform spectrometer and a recent analysis of this band. Least-squares fits to 0.0025/cm resolution laboratory spectra in the Q branch region indicate an integrated intensity of 0.529 x 10(exp -18)/cm/mol/sq cm at 296 K for this weak band. Stratospheric HNO3 retrievals derived from the ATMOS data are consistent with this value within its estimated uncertainty of about +/- 30%. A set of spectroscopic line parameters suitable for atmospheric studies has been generated.
