The interdiffusion coefficients for the gas mixtures of Kr–SO2 and Kr–(C2H5)2O have been measured in the temperature range 1 to 45 °C by the two-bulb technique of Ney and Armistead using radioactive 85Kr as tracer. A scintillation counter has been used for analyzing the concentration of 85Kr at different times. A mass correction was applied to get the normal diffusion coefficients for both the systems.The experimental D12 values have been employed to get the unlike interaction parameters on the Lennard-Jones (12:6) potential and compared with those obtained by using the combination rules for a polar–nonpolar system and the force constants of the polar gas from viscosity as well as from second virial data. For interpreting second virial data for polar gases the assumption of an off-center dipole is found to yield better interaction parameters.

The properties of chaotic advection arising from defect turbulence, that is, weak turbulence in the electroconvection of nematic liquid crystals, were experimentally investigated. Defect turbulence is a phenomenon in which fluctuations of convective rolls arise and are globally disturbed while maintaining convective rolls locally. The time-dependent diffusion coefficient, as measured from the motion of a tagged particle driven by the turbulence, was used to clarify the dependence of the type of diffusion on coarse-graining time. The results showed that, as coarse-graining time increases, the type of diffusion changes from superdiffusion → subdiffusion → normal diffusion. The change in diffusive properties over the observed timescale reflects the coexistence of local order and global disorder in the defect turbulence.

Viscosity and diffusion coefficients for five equimolar binary gas mixtures of SF 6 with O 2, CO 2, CF 4, N 2 and CH 4 gases are determined from the extended principle of corresponding states of viscosity by the inversion technique. The Lennard–Jones 12-6 (LJ 12-6) potential energy function is used as the initial model potential required by the technique. The obtained interaction potential energies from the inversion procedure reproduce viscosity within 1% and diffusion coefficients within 5%.

A detailed diffusion study was carried out on Cu(Ga) and Cu(Si) solid solutions in order to assess the role of different factors in the behaviour of the diffusing components. The faster diffusing species in the two systems, interdiffusion, intrinsic and impurity diffusion coefficients, are determined to facilitate the discussion. It was found that Cu was more mobile in the Cu–Si system, whereas Ga was the faster diffusing species in the Cu–Ga system. In both systems, the interdiffusion coefficients increased with increasing amount of solute (e.g. Si or Ga) in the matrix (Cu). Impurity diffusion coefficients for Si and Ga in Cu, found out by extrapolating interdiffusion coefficient data to zero composition of the solute, were both higher than the Cu tracer diffusion coefficient. These observed trends in diffusion behaviour could be rationalized by considering: (i) formation energies and concentration of vacancies, (ii) elastic moduli (indicating bond strengths) of the elements and (iii) the interaction parameters and the related thermodynamic factors. In summary, we have shown here that all the factors introduced in this paper should be considered simultaneously to understand interdiffusion in solid solutions. Otherwise, some of the aspects may look unusual or even impossible to explain.

Spectra of H2–Ar, H2–Kr, and H2–Xe Van der Waals complexes, accompanying the Q1(0), Q1(1), S1(0), and S1(1) transitions of the pressure-induced fundamental infrared absorption band of hydrogen, have been studied in gas mixtures at 93–180 °K with a path length of 13 m and total pressures of ~3 atm. The main features of the spectra correspond to rotational transitions in the ground vibrational state of the complex, i.e., resolved T and N lines (Δl = ± 3) and unresolved R and P lines (Δl = ± 1), where l is the rotational quantum number of the complex. The spectra are analyzed with eigenvalues derived from the wave-mechanical solution of the isotropic Lennard–Jones 12–6 potential with constants determined from the combination rules for mixed molecular species. Although there is good overall agreement, it is evident that finer details of the spectra will require the introduction of an anisotropic intermolecular potential for their explanation.
