Synchrotron-based Fourier transform spectra of the ν23 and ν24 IR bands of hexamethylenetetramine C6N4H12

2015

Abstract Hexamethylenetetramine (HMT), C6N4H12 is a spherical top with nine IR-active modes. Because of its relevance for astrophysics, we recorded the absorption spectra in the full range of its fundamental bands. In total, we detected eight fundamental bands and recently published the rotational analysis of the four most intense bands ( ν 19 , ν 20 , ν 21 , ν 22 ) located in the 1000–1500 cm−1 range as a support for astronomical searches (Pirali et al., 2014). While the CH stretch modes are unresolved broad features, in this article we report the analysis of the two remaining fundamental bands exhibiting rotationally resolved structures: ν 23 –GS and ν 24 –GS located at about 820 cm−1 and…

High-resolution spectroscopy and analysis of the V2 + V3 combination band of SF6 in a supersonic jet expansion

2013

International audience; Sulphur hexafluoride is a very strong greenhouse gas whose concentration is increasing in the atmosphere. It is detected through infrared absorption spectroscopy in the strong ν3 fundamental region. Due to the existence of low-lying vibrational states of this molecule, however, many hot bands arise at room temperature and those are still not known. We present here a contribution to the elucidation of this hot band structure, by analysing the ν2 + ν3 combination band. We use a supersonic jet expansion high-resolution spectrum at a rotational temperature of ca. 25 K that was recorded thanks to the Jet-AILES setup at the Source Optimisée de Lumière d'Energie Intermédiai…

Self and N-2 collisional broadening of far-infrared methane lines measured at the SOLEIL synchrotron

2012

International audience; Following our recent study devoted to measurements of intensities of pure rotation lines of methane, room temperature far infrared spectra of methane diluted in nitrogen at five total pressures between 100 and 800 hPa have been recorded at the AILES beamline of the SOLEIL synchrotron. One hundred and five N-2 broadening coefficients of methane pure rotation lines have been measured in the 83-261 cm(-1) spectral range using multi-spectrum non-linear least squares fitting of Voigt profiles. Pressure-induced line shifts were not needed to fit the spectra to the noise level and line mixing effects were neglected. One hundred and seventy-six self broadening coefficients h…

The high-resolution far-infrared spectrum of methane at the SOLEIL synchrotron

2010

International audience; As a tetrahedral molecule, methane has no permanent dipole moment. Its spectrum, however, displays faint absorption lines in the THz region, due to centrifugal distorsion effects. This is important for planetary applications since this region is used to measure methane concentration in some planetary atmospheres, in particular on Titan. Up to now, all measurements relied either on some old low resolution infrared absorption spectra, or on high resolution Stark measurements for low J values only. Even if these results have been reexamined recently [E. H. Wishnow, G. S. Orton, I. Ozier and H. P. Gush, J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer 103, 102-117 (2007)], it seeme…
