    Intensities and broadening coefficients for the Q branch of the 4nu-2 - nu-1 + nu-2 (471.511/cm) band of CO2 (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: 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.

    Fast metastable fragments produced by dissociative excitation of carbonyl sulfide (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Dissociative excitation of OCS by electron impact has been studied using the method of translational spectroscopy. Time-of-flight distributions and excitation functions of the fast metastable fragments have been measured. The results are compared with similar measurements on CO2 and show that a variety of metastable fragments including CO(a 3Pi), S(5S), O(5S) as well as long-lived high-lying atomic and molecular Rydberg fragments can contribute to dissociation.

    Precision measurements of NH3 spectral lines near 11 microns using the infrared heterodyne technique (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Absolute line-center frequencies for eleven lines of ammonia in near coincidence with CO2-laser transitions have been determined to accuracies of + or -3 MHz by infrared heterodyne detection. These results were obtained by heterodyning a blackbody with a stable grating-tuned CO2 gas laser. A discussion of the apparatus and method of calculation, including error analysis, is presented. With these accurately determined line-center positions, the ammonia molecule will be a useful secondary-frequency standard for diode-laser spectroscopy in the 11-micron wavelength region.

    Optical considerations in infrared heterodyne spectrometer design (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The optical design considerations for optimization of sensitivity, tunability, and versatility of an infrared heterodyne spectrometer are discussed using the GSFC CO2 laser heterodyne spectrometer optical front end as an example. Problems related to the coherent nature of the laser local oscillator beam (e.g., interference effects at edges of optical elements and at the beam combining beamsplitter) are described and proper beamsplitter design discussed. Optimum matching to the telescope is discussed. The severe effects of large central obscuration on the coherent telescope efficiency are described and steps to partially recover the lost system sensitivity are proposed. Measurements made with the GSFC 48 inch telescope (linear obscuration rate = 0.5) and the KPNO McMathe telescope (no obscuration) are given as examples.

    RF spectrometers for heterodyne receivers (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Several types of spectrometers developed for radio astronomy receivers which utilize RF filters, multiple oscillators and mixers, digital autocorrelators and acoustic/optic devices are considered. The RF spectrometer developed at GSFC to provide wide bandwidths (greater than 1 GHz) as well as high resolution (5MHz) is described. The 128 channel filter bank is divided into high and low resolution sections. The high resolution section is tunable by providing a second mixer ahead of the filter bank. This is necessary because infrared receivers which use gas lasers as local oscillators are only tunable to specific laser frequencies. To compensate for astronomical Doppler shifts and molecule frequency differences a second local oscillator and mixer is needed. A diagram of the RF section of the filter bank is shown. The RF spectrometer is shown to be the best means of achieving ultra-wide bandwidths for infrared heterodyne receivers. For high resolution with a large number of channels, the acousto/optical spectrometer is the principle instrument, particularly for balloon or space flight applications.

    Development and performance of a laser heterodyne spectrometer using tunable semiconductor lasers as local oscillators (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: A diode laser based IR heterodyne spectrometer for laboratory and field use was developed for high efficiency operation between 7.5 and 8.5 microns. The local oscillator is a PbSSe tunable diode laser kept continuously at operating temperatures of 12-60 K using a closed cycle cooler. The laser output frequency is controlled and stabilized using a high precision diode current supply, constant temperature controller, and a shock isolator mounted between the refrigerator cold tip and the diode mount. Single laser modes are selected by a grating placed in the local oscillator beam. The system employs reflecting optics throughout to minimize losses from internal reflection and absorption, and to eliminate chromatic effects. Spectral analysis of the diode laser output between 0 and 1 GHz reveals excess noise at many diode current settings, which limits the infrared spectral regions over which useful heterodyne operation can be achieved. System performance has been studied by making heterodyne measurements of etalon fringes and several Freon 13 (CF3Cl) absorption lines against a laboratory blackbody source. Preliminary field tests have also been performed using the Sun as a source.

    A Quantum Band Model of the nu3 Fundamental of Methanol (CH3OH) and Its Application to Fluorcescence Spectra of Comets (2012)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Methanol (CH3OH) radiates efficiently at infrared wavelengths, dominating the C-H stretching region in comets, yet inadequate quantum-mechanical models have imposed limits on the practical use of its emission spectra. Accordingly, we constructed a new line-by-line model for the 3 fundamental band of methanol at 2844 / cm (3.52 micron) and applied it to interpret cometary fluorescence spectra. The new model permits accurate synthesis of line-by-line spectra for a wide range of rotational temperatures, ranging from 10 K to more than 400 K.We validated the model by comparing simulations of CH3OH fluorescent emission with measured spectra of three comets (C/2001 A2 LINEAR, C/2004 Q2 Machholz and 8P/Tuttle) acquired with high-resolution infrared spectrometers at high-altitude sites. The new model accurately describes the complex emission spectrum of the nu3 band, providing distinct rotational temperatures and production rates at greatly improved confidence levels compared with results derived from earlier fluorescence models. The new model reconciles production rates measured at infrared and radio wavelengths in C/2001 A2 (LINEAR). Methanol can now be quantified with unprecedented precision and accuracy in astrophysical sources through high-dispersion spectroscopy at infrared wavelengths

    The Volatile Fraction of Comets as Quantified at Infrared Wavelengths - An Emerging Taxonomy and Implications for Natal Heritage (2012)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: It is relatively easy to identify the reservoir from which a given comet was ejected. But dynamical models demonstrate that the main cometary reservoirs (Kuiper Belt, Oort Cloud) each contain icy bodies that formed in a range of environments in the protoplanetary disk, and the Oort Cloud may even contain bodies that formed in disks of sibling stars in the Sun s birth cluster. The cometary nucleus contains clues to the formative region(s) of its individual components. The composition of ices and rocky grains reflect a range of processes experienced by material while on the journey from the natal interstellar cloud core to the cometary nucleus. For that reason, emphasis is placed on classifying comets according to their native ices and dust (rather than orbital dynamics). Mumma & Charnley [1] reviewed the current status of taxonomies for comets and relation to their natal heritage.
