To mark the centennial of the discovery of oxygen by Joseph Priestley (1733-1804) on August 1, 1774, H. Carrington Bolton of the Columbia College School of Mines suggested a gathering of American chemists be held to celebrate this event. A suggestion was made by Rachel Bodley of the Women’s Medical College of Pennsylvania that an appropriate place would be Northumberland, Pennsylvania, where Pr...

Discrete variable representation (DVR) calculations are performed for H+ $ . These calculations yield rotation± vibration wavefunctions which extend all the way to dissociation for the ground (J ̄ 0) and ® rst two (J ̄ 1, 2) rotationally excited states of the system. Approximately 10 million linestrengths are computed for transitions involving these states and infrared spectra in the neardissocia...
