Coulomb Potentials

The ground-state logarithmic perturbation theory for screened Coulomb potentials is extended to the case of excited states. For states with I = n – 1, the recurrence relations obtained provide a convenient scheme for calculating the energy coefficients E(k). This logarithmic scheme is compared with an exponential scheme developed earlier.

Weinhold's lower bound formulas are used on rather accurate wavefunctions for the 11S ground states of H−, He, and Li+, and the 21S and 23S excited states of He. The results are found to be of very high quality, as judged by comparison with the best available variational calculations, and can be used to rule out many of the values calculated by Scherr and Knight from high-order perturbation theory.

<p></p><p> Damage to RNA from ultraviolet radiation induce chemical modifications to the nucleobases. Unraveling the excited states involved in these reactions is essential, but investigations aimed at understanding the electronic-energy relaxation pathways of the RNA nucleotide uridine 5’-monophosphate (UMP) have not received enough attention. In this Letter, the excited-state dynamics of UMP is investigated in aqueous solution. Excitation at 267 nm results in a trifurcation event that leads to the simultaneous population of the vibrationally-excited ground state, a longlived <sup>1</sup>n<sub>O</sub>π* state, and a receiver triplet state within 200 fs. The receiver state internally convert to the long-lived <sup>3</sup>ππ* state in an ultrafast time scale. The results elucidate the electronic relaxation pathways and clarify earlier transient absorption experiments performed for uracil derivatives in solution. This mechanistic information is important because long-lived nπ* and ππ* excited states of both singlet and triplet multiplicities are thought to lead to the formation of harmful photoproducts.</p><p></p>

The beam scattering method was used to investigate non-dissociative single-electron charge transfer between the molecular dication CO22+ and Ar or Ne at several collision energies between 3-10 eV (centre-of-mass, c.m.). Relative translational energy distributions of the product ions showed that in the reaction with Ar the CO2+ product was mainly formed in reactions of the ground state of the dication, CO22+(X3Σg-), leading to the excited states of the product CO2+(A2Πu) and CO2+(B2Σu+). In the reaction with Ne, the largest probability had the process from the reactant dication excited state CO22+(1Σg+) leading to the product ion ground state CO2+(X2Πg). Less probable were processes between the other excited states of the dication CO22+, (1∆g), (1Σu-), (3∆u), also leading to the product ion ground state CO2+(X2Πg). Using the Landau-Zener model of the reaction window, relative populations of the ground and excited states of the dication CO22+ in the reactant beam were roughly estimated as (X3Σg):(1∆g):(1Σg+):(1Σu-):(3∆u) = 1.0:0.6:0.5:0.25:0.25.

Abstract The rotational transitions of 3,4-dihydro-1,2-pyran in the ground state and six vibrationally excited states have been assigned. The rotational constants for the ground state (A = 5198.1847(24), B = 4747.8716(24) and C = 2710.9161(24) have been derived by fitting μa, μb and μc-type transitions. The dipole moment was determined from Stark displacement measurements to be 1.400(8) D with its principal axis components |μa| =1.240(2), |μb| = 0.588(10) and |μc| = 0.278(8) D. A model calculation to reproduce the ground state rotational constants indicates that the data are consistent with a twisted ring conformation. The average intensity ratio gives vibrational separations between the ground and excited states of the ring-bending and ring-twisting modes of ~ 178 and ~ 277 cm-1 respectively.

Abstract We study the large momentum limit of the monster potentials of Bazhanov-Lukyanov-Zamolodchikov, which — according to the ODE/IM correspondence — should correspond to excited states of the Quantum KdV model.We prove that the poles of these potentials asymptotically condensate about the complex equilibria of the ground state potential, and we express the leading correction to such asymptotics in terms of the roots of Wronskians of Hermite polynomials.This allows us to associate to each partition of N a unique monster potential with N roots, of which we compute the spectrum. As a consequence, we prove — up to a few mathematical technicalities — that, fixed an integer N , the number of monster potentials with N roots coincides with the number of integer partitions of N , which is the dimension of the level N subspace of the quantum KdV model. In striking accordance with the ODE/IM correspondence.

Abstract Attempts to the Calculation of the Chemical Shift with Especial Consideration of the Paramagnetic Term The calculation of the paramagnetic term according to the Pople formalism of the chemical shift is expanded. The hitherto constant value of the energy gap between the ground state and the excited states is replaced by the value of the lowest lying excitation. This leads to a remarkably better differentiation of the paramagnetic terms of different compounds. The influence is shown on ethane, ethene and ethine.

Phosphorus In Silicon

The optical absorption spectra of arsenic and phosphorus donor impurities in silicon have been studied under conditions of improved resolution. Absorption lines due to transitions from the impurity ground state to the excited states 2p0, 2p±, 3p0, 3p±, 4p0, 4 p±, and 5p0, and 5p± have been observed at 4.2° K. The relative intensities of some of these absorption lines are compared with existing experimental and theoretical estimates. The contribution of instrumental broadening to the observed line widths is assessed and natural line widths are estimated. The estimates indicate values for the natural line widths which are much less than those previously reported. For phosphorus impurity, the natural line widths are estimated to be less than 0.08 × 10−3 electron volts full width at half-maximum. The possibility of concentration broadening is discussed in connection with the arsenic data.
