Dipole oscillator strength distributions have been constructed and used to evaluate integrated oscillator strengths, and a variety of dipole oscillator strength properties, for ground state SO2, CS2, and OCS. Each distribution has been constructed by using experimental and theoretical photoabsorption cross sections and by subjecting the resulting dipole oscillator strength data to constraints provided by the Thomas–Reiche–Kuhn sum rule and molar refractivity data for the relevant dilute gases. The discussion includes graphical presentations of how various spectral regions of the dipole oscillator strength distributions contribute to the more important dipole properties.

Dipole oscillator strength distributions (DOSDs) have been constructed for ground state ethylene, propene, and 1-butene. Each DOSD is constructed by using available experimental and theoretical photoabsorption cross sections and by constraining the resulting dipole oscillator strength data to satisfy the Thomas – Reiche–Kuhn sum rule and molar refractivity constraints. The latter were obtained from experimental refractive index measurements of relevant dilute gases. The recommended DOSDs, and the values of integrated "band" oscillator strengths, and the dipole oscillator strength sums Sk and Lk (for a variety of k values) obtained from them, are reported. The discussion includes an analysis of the reliability of the results using 1-butene as a detailed model.

Based on the global three-dimensional adiabatic potential surface of the 13A′ excited electronic state (J. Chem. Phys. 2005, 123, 114310) of the OHF system, we investigated the H + OF → OH + F/HF + O reaction stereodynamics by using the quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) method. The four polarization-dependent differential cross sections (PDDCSs) and the three angular distributions P(θr), P([Formula: see text]), P(θr, [Formula: see text]) were calculated at a low collision energy of 0.48 eV for both product channels. The results indicated that the products are backward-scattering on the triplet state, and the product rotational angular momenta are aligned or oriented. Moreover, there is a remarkable difference between the polarization behaviors of the two product channels. Product orientation exhibited by the OH + F channel is found to be absent in the HF + O channel at this collision energy albeit the latter shows stronger alignment along the direction perpendicular to the reagent relative velocity k than OH + F.

<p>The first and only global data set of mean age of stratospheric air (AoA) with dense day and night coverage has been derived from MIPAS observations by analysis of the spectral signature of SF<sub>6</sub> (Stiller et al., 2008, 2012; Haenel et al., 2015). Since SF<sub>6</sub> is a tracer with no sinks in the troposphere and stratosphere and an almost linearly increasing atmospheric abundance, it is often used to derive information on stratospheric transport and mixing due to the Brewer Dobson Circulation, quantified usually as mean age of stratospheric air (AoA). The global data sets of AoA derived so far from MIPAS observations, on basis of spectroscopically measured absorption cross sections by Varanasi et al. (1994), had a high bias in the middle to upper stratosphere compared to balloon-borne in situ observations from the 1990s. By applying a new spectroscopic data set measured in the laboratory recently (J.J. Harrison, to be published), we show that part of the high bias in AoA can be removed, and the residuals between measured and modelled atmospheric spectra can be decreased significantly. In this presentation we discuss the new SF<sub>6</sub> and AoA distributions, variablilities and trends, and compare to previous versions and independent in situ observations. </p><p><strong>References:</strong></p><p>Haenel, F.
