The vibrational relaxation frequency of carbon dioxide has been determined by measuring the rate of change of thermal emission in shock waves near 4±3μ. This method of measuring the relaxation frequency depends mainly on the degree of excitation of the asymmetric stretching mode of the molecule, and the results are compared with those of earlier density measurements made in the same shock tube. The gas samples used are not optically thin, and it is shown that self-absorption can be taken into account. The results imply that the relaxation frequency of the asymmetric stretching mode is about 70% of that of the bending mode.

The time variation of the 2ν5 fluorescence intensity was measured in CDCl3 excited in the ν4 C–D bending mode by a TEA CO2 laser operating on the 10P(48) line. A fast rise of the fluorescence, with a time constant ≤ 1 μs Torr, was first observed, showing that a fast equilibration of population occurs between the ν4 and ν5 modes through a ν4 ↔ ν5 Coriolis-assisted intermode transfer and a ν5 ↔ 2ν5 near-resonant ladder-climbing process. Then a first fast fluorescence decay was observed and attributed to a (ν4, ν5) → ν2 intermode transfer with a rate constant of (7.10 ± 1.13)ms-1 Torr-1. At last, a much slower decay, with a rate constant of 0.111 ± 0.015 ms-1 Torr-1, results from the less efficient intermode transfer and V–T,R deexcitation processes involving the ν3 and ν6 states, and which compete to relax the gas to a thermodynamic equilibrium.

The vibrational properties (anharmonicity, vibrational relaxation lifetime…) of water in crowded myoglobin solutions remain the same as that in neat water but the collective properties of the water molecules are significantly affected by the protein (orientational time, solid–liquid transition).
