    Notes: The high resolution spectra of the fundamental and first overtone of the acetylenic C–H stretch in tert.-butylacetylene-d9 and (trimethylsilyl)acetylene-d9 have been measured using optothermal detection of a collimated molecular beam. IVR lifetimes determined from the homogeneously broadened lineshapes are compared to those of their undeuterated analogues. It is found that for both molecules, at both levels of excitation, deuterating the methyl rotors results in an increased rate of IVR. The results indicate that the previously suggested methyl rotor effect, as an enhancer for IVR, plays a secondary role to increasing the number of low order resonances to which the C–H stretch can couple. Although the torsional modes are important for the molecules to exhibit statistical case IVR and contribute to the filled-in homogeneous lineshapes, the rate of energy relaxation seems to be dominated by the number of low order resonances.

    Notes: The high resolution spectrum of the fundamental C–H stretch in (CF3)3C–C≡C–H has been measured using optothermal detection of a collimated molecular beam. Only the Q branch was resolvable and was fit to a Lorentzian with a full width at half maximum of 2.76 GHz, corresponding to an IVR lifetime of 60 ps. The decrease in lifetime in comparison to (CH3)3C–C≡C–H is thought to be due to strong mixing between the C–F stretches and bends and the backbone C–C stretches and bends.

    Notes: Conclusive experimental evidence is presented that molecules excited to a single ro-vibrational eigenstate in a high density-of-states region are not deflected by an inhomogeneous electric field. The onset of nondeflection behavior occurs in the same density of states region as has been found for the onset of intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution IVR (about 10 vibrational states/cm−1). By using large polyatomic molecules, where the hydride stretch fundamentals occur in this range of state density, the nondeflection behavior can be studied. However, the results are generally applicable to the dynamics of smaller molecules at higher levels of excitation. Thus, the observed nondeflection in our experiments is expected to be a general phenomenon associated with highly vibrationally excited molecules. In addition, it is shown how the nondeflection characteristics of these systems can be exploited experimentally to obtain spectra with increased sensitivity.

    Notes: The eigenstate-resolved 2ν1 (acetylenic CH stretch) absorption spectrum of propane has been observed for J'=0–11 and K=0–3 in a skimmed supersonic molecular beam using optothermal detection. Radiation near 1.5 μm was generated by a color center laser allowing spectra to be obtained with a full-width at half-maximum resolution of 6×10−4 cm−1 (18 MHz). Three distinct characteristics are observed for the perturbations suffered by the optically active (bright) acetylenic CH stretch vibrational state due to vibrational coupling to the nonoptically active (dark) vibrational bath states. (1) The K=0 states are observed to be unperturbed. (2) Approximately 2/3 of the observed K=1–3 transitions are split into 0.02–0.25 cm−1 wide multiplets of two to five lines. These splittings are due to intramolecular coupling of 2ν1 to the near resonant bath states with an average matrix element of 〈V2〉1/2=0.002 cm−1 that appears to grow approximately linearly with K. (3) The K subband origins are observed to be displaced from the positions predicted for a parallel band, symmetric top spectrum.The first two features suggest that the coupling of the bright state to the bath states is dominated by parallel (z-axis) Coriolis coupling. The third suggests a nonresonant coupling (Coriolis or anharmonic) to a perturber, not directly observed in the spectrum, that itself tunes rapidly with K; the latter being the signature of diagonal z-axis Coriolis interactions affecting the perturber. A natural interpretation of these facts is that the coupling between the bright state and the dark states is mediated by a doorway state that is anharmonically coupled to the bright state and z-axis Coriolis coupled to the dark states. Z-axis Coriolis coupling of the doorway state to the bright state can be ruled out since the ν1 normal mode cannot couple to any of the other normal modes by a parallel Coriolis interaction. Based on the range of measured matrix elements and the distribution of the number of perturbations observed we find that the bath levels that couple to 2ν1 do not exhibit Gaussian orthogonal ensemble type statistics but instead show statistics consistent with a Poisson spectrum, suggesting regular, not chaotic, classical dynamics.

    Notes: We present the high resolution spectrum of the ν1 fundamental of propyne near 3335 cm−1 obtained using a very warm free jet expansion in our optothermal detection spectrometer. By using a high concentration sample expanded at low backing pressures we have been able to observe transitions for K values up to K=6. The additional data available allow us to reinvestigate this vibrational band. We find an unusual perturbation pattern in this band where the individual subbands (rovibrational transitions for a single K value) appear to be completely unperturbed at the level of precision of our data (7.5 MHz), but the subband origin orderings are perturbed through nonresonant interactions. Attempts to account for the subband ordering using a two-state anharmonic interaction are unsuccessful indicating that the perturbations are of multistate origin. This type of nonresonant perturbation to the subband origins of symmetric top molecules should be a common feature of symmetric tops with large A rotational constants. As a result of this investigation we conclude that the previously reported value of αA, determined from a very cold expansion where only K=0 and K=1 were observed, is not a measure of the true (unperturbed) value of this constant. This conclusion is also supported by force field calculations presented here that use an empirical harmonic force field augmented by diagonal anharmonicities for the hydride stretches. These calculations, which reproduce measured values of αA and αB for lower energy bands quite successfully, also show that the previous determination of αA is too large and must be dominated by perturbation contributions. We have also measured the weak Fermi resonant band ν3+2ν09 which acquires its intensity through interaction with ν1. Again we find an anomalous subband ordering like that observed in ν1.

    Notes: We present the high-resolution (11 MHz) infrared measurement of the molecular Stark effect for the R(0) transition of the acetylenic C–H stretch in 2-propyn-1-ol. The field-free spectrum is fragmented into three eigenstate components due to the effects of intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR). As the field strength increases from 0 to 25 kV/cm, the number of eigenstates increases linearly. The center-of-gravity of the fragmented R(0) transition follows the simple, second-order Stark shift (Δν∝E2) expected for the bright state. However, when viewed at the eigenstate level, the mechanism of the Stark shift is rather complex. At lower field strengths, the eigenstates shift in energy, as occurs for Stark effects in lower state density regimes. As the number of coupled states increases, energy shifting of the eigenvalues is quenched. To preserve the second-order Stark shift of the center-of-gravity, the intensity "rolls over'' the largely rigid eigenvalue structure. For molecules in regions of high state density, the reduced energy shifting of the eigenvalues as the electric field is increased means that lack of deflection by inhomogeneous electric fields is not necessarily a consequence of the molecule being nonpolar.

    Notes: Summary Numerical simulations of thunderstorms using initial conditions from an Oklahoma storm event on 26 April 1984 have been carried out using the Klemp-Wilhelmson cloud model. Two thermodynamic and two horizontal wind profiles are mixed to create four initial storm environments. The two initial thermodynamic profiles are designated as moderately and highly unstable. Both hodographs have considerable vertical wind shear, with the extremely unstable profile having substantially stronger storm-relative curvature shear in the lowest few kilometers, as measured by the helicity of the environment. Storms are initialized with two different temperature-perturbation warm bubbles. A variety of storms, qualitatively covering the range observed on this day, are simulated. With a strongly sheared, moderate instability environment, the two different temperature-perturbation simulations differ qualitatively, unlike the other pairs of simulations. Of particular interest is the simulation carried out with the weaker temperature-perturbation. It displays many of the characteristics of observed low-precipitation (LP) supercell storms. Without artificially suppressing rainfall, this storm produces very little precipitation over the first 6000 s of its lifetime. During this time, there is no strong downdraft at the lowest model level and vorticity at that level is much less than the values aloft. We hypothesize that LP storms can be generated by smaller initial impulses than “classic” supercells in environments typically associated with a supercell storm, as speculated by Bluestein and Parks (1983), since they are more susceptible to turbulent entrainment in highly sheared environments.

    Notes: Conclusions The results of this work suggest that the use of two-dimensional porous medium cells aligned in the vertical plane affords a promising experimental technique for studying the very significant effects that buoyancy forces are capable of exerting on the stability of liquid/liquid displacement processes in porous media. The cell described here is relatively easy to use and permits a wide range of cell orientations, flow modes, injection points, and recovery points to be investigated. Detailed quantitative studies involving a wide range of fluids, flowrates, and flow modes, are currently under way and will be reported in due course.
