The absorption spectrum of Ag I between 550 Å and 1590 Å has been investigated by using synchrotron radiation as the source of continuum. Over 50 new transitions are reported, nearly all of which can be classified into Rydberg series due to excitation of one electron from the 4d subshell. Identifications are made by comparison with previous studies of the arc spectrum as well as with absorption spectra of related elements. Ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations have revealed the importance of treating 5s 5p 1 P based levels by a separate variational method. Doubly excited configurations are also found, but, in contrast to a previous theoretical prediction, double vacancy production within the 4d subshell is not found to be significant for Ag I.

The gas phase absorption spectra of 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethene, cis- and trans-1-chloro-1,2-difluoroethene have been measured in the photon energy range from 6.5 to 25 eV. The π → π* transition is assigned to bands centered around 7.17 – 7.20 eV for all three isomers. Four Rydberg series are observed in all the spectra, converging to the π ionization potential: two np-type Rydberg series, one ns, and one nd series are assigned. The convergence limits are: 9.84 eV (2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethene), 9.86 eV (trans-1-chloro-1,2-difluoroethene), and 9.85 eV (trans-1-chloro-1,2-difluoroethene). In the case of 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethene four additional Rydberg series are found converging to the nCl ionization potential. The convergence limit of these series is 12.15 eV.Above 12 eV broad absorption bands dominate the spectra.

The vapour absorption spectra of naphthalene and naphthalene-d8 were obtained photographically and photoelectrically from 50000 to 70000 cm-1. A series of Rydberg transitions and possibly two π*-π systems are observed. Each of the five Rydberg series converges to an ionization potential of 65620 � 40 cm-l, i.e. 8.136 � 0.005 eV (C10H8), and 65640 � 60 cm-l, i.e. 8.138 � 0.008 eV (C10D8). The quantum defects of the series are (0.94, 0.88, 0.82, 0.67, 0.53) � 0.01. The significance of these results is discussed.

The absorption spectra of benzene and benzene-d6 have been photographed from 1300 Å to 1850 Å in the first order of a 21-ft. normal incidence vacuum spectrograph. The band analysis resulted in the identification of four Rydberg series (over one hundred vibrational bands) in each molecule, converging to ionization potentials of 9.247 ev. (benzene) and 9.251 ev. (benzene-d6). Progressions of the ν2, ν18, and ν20 vibrations are associated with most of the 31 observed Rydberg transitions, and vibrational constants are tabulated for each. The strong intensity and the unusual length of the upper state ν18 (e2g) progression in comparison with the ν2(a1g) progression are interpreted in terms of the Jahn–Teller theorem, and it is concluded that the stable equilibrium nuclear configuration in the Rydberg states is of D2h symmetry.
