We review the constraints given by the linear matter power spectra data on cosmological and bias parameters, comparing the data from the PSCz survey (Hamilton et al., 2000) and from the matter power spectrum infered by the study of Lyman alpha spectra at z=2.72 (Croft et al., 2000). We consider flat–Λ cosmologies, allowing Λ, H0 and n to vary, and we also let the two ratio factors rpscz and r l...

Power-law spectra have been used to interpret scintillation data for decades. Twocomponent power-law spectra were invoked to explain observed equatorial scintillation from VHF to S-Band. Carrano and Rino developed new strong-scatter theoretical results described in a companion IES 2015 paper. The new theoretical results have been used to estimate two-component power-law parameters from multi-fr...

The B̃-X̃ laser-induced-fluorescence spectrum of jet-cooled isopropoxy radical (i-C3H7O[middle dot]) has been recorded. Using an isolated state model the observed rotational and fine structure of the origin band has been well simulated to determine rotational constants for both the X̃ and B̃ states and the electron spin-rotation constants of the X̃ state. The line intensities are well simulated with...

Three electronic absorption systems for C5 at 511, 445, and 232 nm and one for C6, C8, and C9 centered at 228, 259, and 288 nm have been observed in the gas phase. The C5 chain was produced in both discharge and ablation sources and detected using resonant two-color two-photon ionization spectroscopy involving 10.5 eV photons. The decay of the excited singlet electronic states indicates fast in...

Two-dimensional Fourier transform electronic spectra were recorded for the LH3 light harvesting complex. The spectra reveal the weak coupling between B800 molecules, the ultrafast dynamics within B820 and energy flow from B800 to B850.
