Rotationally resolved absorption spectra of I(2)(+) were recorded in 12,065-13,062 cm(-1) region by employing optical heterodyne velocity modulation absorption spectroscopy. In total, 4054 lines were assigned to 24 bands in the A(2)Π(3/2,u)-X(2)Π(3/2,g) system spanning the vibrational levels υ'' = 1-4 and υ(n)' = 11-19. The assigned lines were globally fitted and an error of 0.

Hydroxyl radical molecular beam was generated by DC pulsed high voltage discharge. The rotational resolution excitation fluorescence spectra of the OH A 2sigma+ -X 2pi (1, 0) band were observed by using second harmonious output of a nanosecond dye laser (around 282 nm). The rotational temperature of the (1, 0) band was determined to be (30 +/- 1) K based on the analysis of the intensity distribution of the OH spectra.

Article Synopsis
  • An experimental setup utilizing an AC discharge was created to generate a molecular ion beam, primarily focusing on N2+ ions.
  • The emission intensity of N2+ was found to be significantly stronger than that of N2, achieving a high ratio of 6:1 in N2 discharge.
  • The study also involved analyzing the effects of N2 discharge, along with calculating the vibrational and rotational temperatures of N2+ ions as 3,310 K and 282 K, respectively, based on the emission spectra.

The molecular cation CO+ is a very important transient molecular radical, and the spectra of the ion has been investigated by numerous researchers. Optical-heterodyne-magnetic-rotation-enhanced velocity modulation spectroscopy(OH-MR-VMS) was employed to measure the comet-tail system (A2 pi(i)-X2 sigma+) of 12C16O+ molecular ion. The vibrational rotation absorption spectra wereobserved in the near-infrared region, including three bands of (0, 3), (1, 4) and (3, 6).

Article Synopsis
  • The CN radical was produced using a Penning discharge from a mix of acetonitrile and helium gases.
  • Researchers measured the ro-vibrational spectra of the CN radical from 16,850 to 17,480 cm(-1) and identified 138 lines for the (6, 1) band and 118 lines for the (7, 2) band in the red system.
  • They improved the molecular constants and perturbation parameters using a fitting method with high accuracy, as indicated by a standard deviation of less than 0.007 cm(-1).

A new method for the calibration of wavelength in a measurement of high resolution molecular absorption spectra by referring the standard spectrum of iodine molecule is presented in this paper. Segment offset is employed in the calibration of wavelength, while the data smoothing, baseline determining and peak fitting are applied to preprocess the spectral data. A visual software is provided for automatically calibrating wavelength with a friendly style of mutual dialogue between human and computer.
