The profiles of the quadrupole-induced transitions (S1(0), S1(1)) of the pressure-induced fundamental infrared absorption band of hydrogen are studied in H2–Ar, H2–Kr, and H2–Xe gas mixtures up to high densities a few degrees above the critical temperature of the rare gas and in the corresponding liquid mixtures along the liquid–vapor line. The half-width δq of the transitions remains practically constant for the gas mixtures up to densities of several hundred amagat and then decreases rapidly. Values of δq for the liquid mixtures, when corrected for the temperature difference, are the same as the gas values at the same density. The narrowing of the transitions in the high-density region is interpreted in terms of the diffusional narrowing theory of Zaidi and Van Kranendonk, and is used to calculate diffusion coefficients D12 of H2 molecules in dense rare gas fluids. The results are in reasonable agreement with values of D12 previously deduced from the intercollisional interference effect in the overlap-induced components (Q1(0), Q1(1)) of the same band.

A study is being made of the far infrared absorption occurring in compressed rare-gas mixtures, and compressed homonuclear diatomic gases. The region investigated lies between 20 and 400 cm−1. The spectra are obtained from the Fourier analysis of interferograms produced by a dynamic Michelson interferometer. It is possible to obtain accurate absolute absorption coefficients for broad bands using this method provided care is exercised in the analysis of the interferograms. The necessary precautions are discussed in detail. The precision of the method obtained in practice is demonstrated using the far infrared bands of hydrogen and nitrogen as examples. Only the experimental techniques are discussed in this paper; the detailed results follow in a separate paper.

ABSTRACTMixtures of krypton atoms and C60, modelled in terms of rigid spherical molecules, are investigated at T ≃ 1800K through classical Molecular Dynamics. The two species do not tend to mix for low to moderate concentrations of krypton, and solid clusters of C60 tend to be stable. Possible implications of these results are shortly discussed.

The collision induced fundamental band of H2 has been studied in H2–He mixtures with absorption paths of 110 and 165 m in a low temperature multiple traversal cell. Spectra were obtained at 18 and 61.5 K with densities in the range of 9 to 60 amagat. Under these conditions the structure of the band is particularly simple and amenable to analysis; the results of a profile analysis of the present spectra are compared with the higher temperature and density results in paper I (Mactaggart and Welsh) of this series. The long observed splitting of the Q branch of the H2 fundamental is manifested here as very sharp dips in the absorption profile at the Q1(0) and Q1(1) molecular frequencies and these provide a striking confirmation of Van Kranendonk's explanation of the 'splitting' as due to an intercollisional interference effect.
