A Search for Isotope Effects in Chemiluminescent Reactions of Metastable Ca*(PJ, D2) Atoms with CH3I and CD3I Molecules

چکیده
Chemiluminescent reactions of calcium atoms in the metastablePJ and D2 states with CH3I and CD3I were studied in a beam-gas arrangement. Calcium monoiodide spectra associated with transitions from the electronic A Π, B Σ and C Π states to the X Σ ground state were recorded. Total collision and chemiluminescence cross sections were measured. It was found that isotopic substitution in the methyl group does not change the reaction cross sections and the chemiluminescence spectra.

Electronic Energy Partitioning in the Reactions of Metastable Mg*(Pj) Atoms with F2, Cl2, Br2,12, IC1, IBr
Chemiluminescent reactions of metastable Mg*(Pj) atoms with F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, IC1, IBr molecules were studied in a beam-gas experiment. For all homonuclear targets the MgX(A FI X X) emission was observed, but for IC1 and IBr reactants the Mgl(A-X) emission was absent and only MgCl(A-X) or MgBr(A-X) spectra were found. In addition, for the I2, IBr, IC1, Br2 reactions, broad pseudocontinua extend...
متن کاملSpin-orbit relaxation of Cl(2P1/2) and F(2P1/2) in a gas of H2.
The authors present quantum scattering calculations of rate coefficients for the spin-orbit relaxation of F(2P1/2) atoms in a gas of H2 molecules and Cl(2P1/2) atoms in a gas of H2 and D2 molecules. Their calculation of the thermally averaged rate coefficient for the electronic relaxation of chlorine in H2 agrees very well with an experimental measurement at room temperature. It is found that t...
متن کاملLabeling of Human Serum Albumin with Stable Isotope of Bromine; an in Vitro Study
Background: Possibility to trace-label albumin with isotopes results in information concerning its synthesis, breakdown, and distribution in the intra and extra cellular spaces. The iodination of albumin is a widespread procedure used in scientific studies. Bromine not only is more reactive and less expensive than iodine, but bonds more easily with many elements. Therefore, it could be a suitab...
متن کاملMass-Analyzed Threshold Ionization for Structure Determination
High-resolution spectroscopic techniques, such as microwave fluorescence excitation, and double-resonance spectroscopy, have been widely used to measure the rotational constants of neutral molecules and hence to determine their structures. In the case of polyatomic cations, 7] the use of such techniques faces various difficulties, even for cations in ground electronic states. The main difficult...
متن کاملAccumulation of chromium metastable atoms into an Optical Trap
We report the fast accumulation of a large number of metastable Cr atoms in a mixed trap, formed by the superposition of a strongly confining optical trap and a quadrupolar magnetic trap. The steady state is reached after about 400 ms, providing a cloud of more than one million metastable atoms at a temperature of about 100 μK, with a peak density of 10 atoms.m. We have optimized the loading pr...
