Absolute individual line intensities of numerous transitions of the fundamental ν2 and ν10 bands of oxirane (ethylene oxide, c-C2H4O) have been measured in the 1420-1560 cm-1 region using seven high- resolution Fourier transform spectra recorded at 0.002

Absolute line intensities for the nu3 band of oxirane (C2H4O)

Author(s)
Walter J. Lafferty, Jean-Marie Flaud, Fridolin Kwabia, A. Perrin, M. Ngom
Seven Fourier transform spectra of the ν3 band of oxirane (ethylene oxide) have been recorded with different pressures and used to derive individual line intensities. These line intensities were satisfactorily fit leading to accurate transition moment

We demonstrate the first gamma-ray spectroscopy with a microwave-multiplexed two-pixel TES(transition-edge sensor) array. We measured a $^{153}$Gd photon source and achieved an energy resolution of 63 eV full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) at 97 keV and an

A method is reported for performing fast optical frequency scans over a bandwidth of 36.9 GHz and at a sweep rate of 40 kHz using a single second-order sideband from an electro-optic phase modulator driven by an arbitrary waveform generator. Single

A Missing Link in the Cascade Formation of High Symmetry Fullerene Cages

September 15, 2013
Author(s)
Dan Bearden, Jianyuan Zhang, Harry C. Dorn
Before the discovery of graphene, many versions of a “bottom-up” fullerene formation mechanism had been advanced starting with carbide (C2) that forms small carbon cluster chains and rings. However, in recent years evidence is emerging suggesting a “top

Direct measurements of mass-specific optical cross sections of single component aerosol mixtures

James Radney, Xiaofei Ma, Keith A. Gillis, Michael R. Zachariah, Joseph T. Hodges, Christopher D. Zangmeister
The optical properties of atmospheric aerosols vary widely, being dependent upon particle composition, morphology and mixing state. This diversity and complexity of aerosols motivates measurement techniques that can discriminate and quantify a variety of

Anisotropic LMN dielectronic resonances from ratios of magnetic-dipole lines

July 13, 2013
Author(s)
Yuri Ralchenko, John D. Gillaspy
Signatures of multi-keV LMN dielectronic resonances in highly-charged 3dn ions of tungsten were detected in the intensity ratios of extreme-ultraviolet magnetic-dipole lines within ground configurations. The measurements were performed with an electron
