Analytic Self‐Consistent Field Wavefunctions and Computed Properties for Homonuclear Diatomic Molecules

Electron Densities for Homonuclear Diatomic Molecules from the Thomas-Fermi-Dirac Theory

Cluster Estimates and Analytic Wavefunctions

The Tomita-Takesaki modular theory is used to establish a cluster estimate extending and modifying that of Thomas and Wichmann [11], so as to extend it to regions within which the relevant observables are not necessarily spacelike separated. This sort of estimate is then applied to the case of a massive free field, to show that wavefunctions localized in a certain sense are analytic functions o...

Calculation of ground state rotational populations for kinetic gas homonuclear diatomic molecules including electron-impact excitation and wall collisions.

A model has been developed to calculate the ground state rotational populations of homonuclear diatomic molecules in kinetic gases, including the effects of electron-impact excitation, wall collisions, and gas feed rate. The equations are exact within the accuracy of the cross sections used and of the assumed equilibrating effect of wall collisions. It is found that the inflow of feed gas and e...

Coulomb asymmetry in strong field multielectron ionization of diatomic molecules.

We measure the angular distribution of an electron emitted by a strong elliptically polarized two-color laser field from exploding doubly charged molecular nitrogen. This angular distribution is vastly different for emission of the electron from the up-field core of the molecule as compared to that from the down-field core. The emission from the down-field core leads to a slight rotation with r...

Luminescence of Diatomic Molecules

Photoionization has been used to produce ions of N2 , 0 2 . and CO in definite excited states. Deactivating collisions of these ions with molecular gases were described in paper I, where the cross sections of ions with thermal velocity are given for various electronic and vibrational states. By application of an electric field the charged particles are accelerated yielding information on the in...
