Vibrational spectra and force constants of symmetric tops

1983

The infrared spectrum of H3SiI in the 800–1050 cm-1 region has been recorded with a resolution of 0·04 cm-1 and rotationally analysed. Features related to the Fermi resonance between v 5 and v 3 + v 6 and to the Coriolis x, y resonance between v 2 and v 5 have been explained, and a set of vibration-rotation parameters for the three bands has been determined by least-squares calculations, σ(J, K) = 9·4 × 10-3 cm-1. The Fermi resonance matrix element |W 356| is found to be 3·7859(7) cm-1 and the vibrational frequencies are v 2 0 = 904·551(1), v 5 0 = 941·0746(8) and (v 3 + v 6)0 = 953·688(3) cm-1. The anharmonicity constant, x 36 = -1·745(9) cm-1, has been determined. Comparison is made with …

Rotational analysis of the v 2 + v 6 ±1, v 5 ∓1 + v 6 ∓1 and v 5 ∓1 + v 6 ±1 interacting infrared bands of methyl bromide

1982

The rotational analysis of the infrared absorption spectrum of CH3 79Br and CH3 81Br between 2150 and 2510 cm-1 was performed on a Fourier transform spectrum with a resolution of 0·007 cm-1. The bands v 2 + v 6(E) and v 5 + v 6(A 1 + A 2 + E) occur in this region, giving rise to several perturbations as in the corresponding system of methyl chloride [3]. Forbidden transitions, observed in correspondence of the level crossing of the x-y Coriolis coupling between v 2 + v 6 and v 5 + v 6(E), enabled us to estimate the value of A″ - 225D″K at 5·16186 cm-1 for CH3 79Br and 5·16173 cm-1 for CH3 81Br. The parallel system of v 5 + v 6 exhibits a perpendicular structure, and an l-type resonance coup…

Quality control of B-lines analysis in stress Echo 2020

2018

Background The effectiveness trial “Stress echo (SE) 2020” evaluates novel applications of SE in and beyond coronary artery disease. The core protocol also includes 4-site simplified scan of B-lines by lung ultrasound, useful to assess pulmonary congestion. Purpose To provide web-based upstream quality control and harmonization of B-lines reading criteria. Methods 60 readers (all previously accredited for regional wall motion, 53 B-lines naive) from 52 centers of 16 countries of SE 2020 network read a set of 20 lung ultrasound video-clips selected by the Pisa lab serving as reference standard, after taking an obligatory web-based learning 2-h module ( http://se2020.altervista.org ). Each te…
