A new two-dimensional magic-angle spinning NMR experiment1,2 using multiple-quantum coherences of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei was used to study 27Al sites in crystalline samples of leucite (KAlSi2O6), anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8), and kyanite (Al2SiO5), as well as CaAl2Si2O8 glass and a magnesium aluminoborate glass. In the crystals, multiple sites are partially resolved and new results for isotr...

Aerosol particle reactions with vapor molecules and molecular clusters are often collision rate limited, hence determination of particle-vapor molecule and particle-molecular cluster collision rates are of fundamental importance. These collisions typically occur in the mass transfer transition regime, wherein the collision kernel (collision rate coefficient) is dependent upon the diffusive Knud...

Time-resolved kinetic studies of silylene, SiH(2), generated by laser flash photolysis of 1-silacyclopent-3-ene and phenylsilane, have been carried out to obtain rate constants for its bimolecular reactions with methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 2-methyl-1-butanol. The reactions were studied in the gas phase over the pressure range 1-100 Torr in SF(6) bath gas, at room temperature. ...

in order to represent the potential energy function over the whole range of r, many potentialenergy functions have been proposed. in the present paper, we employ many potential energyfunctions, to use numerov method for solving the nuclear schrödinger equation for the ifmolecule, as an example of a heteronuclear diatomic molecules. then we determine thespectroscopic constants eω , e e x ω , e b...

The first experiments on trapped rotaxanes are presented, combining collision induced fragmentation and in-trap laser spectroscopy. The intrinsic optical properties of three rotaxanes and their non-interlocked building blocks (thread and macrocycle) isolated in a quadrupolar ion trap are investigated. The excitation and relaxation processes under thermal activation as well as under photo-activa...
