The collision-induced spectra of mixtures of ethylene and each of the rare gases He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe in the 40–360 cm−1 region has been obtained using a Michelson Fourier transform spectrometer. In addition, improved results for the collision-induced spectrum of pure ethylene gas are reported using this spectrometer as well as a far infrared laser source. All the results from the pure gas and gas mixtures have been analyzed according to the theory for quadrupolar-induced translation–rotational absorption. From this analysis the following values for the components of the quadrupolar tensor are: Qxx = −3.12, Qvy = 1.55, and Qzz = 1.57 B, which are somewhat lower estimates (in absolute value) than previously reported by us. Evidence for induction by other mechanisms (other than quadrupolar) has been obtained for the He–C2H4 and Ne–C2H4 mixtures.

The collision-induced spectra of mixtures of ethane and each of the rare gases He, Ar, Kr, and Xe in the 40–360 cm−1 region have been obtained using a Michelson Fourier transform spectrometer. In addition, the temperature dependence of the absorption in ethane and ethane–xenon mixtures is reported. All results have been analyzed according to the theory for quadrupole induced rotation–translation absorption. The absolute value of the quadrupole moment of ethane is estimated to be less than 1.0 B and most likely less than 0.5 B. Various speculations are made concerning the induction mechanisms (other than quadrupolar) for each of the mixtures.

Ozone yields have been measured from the Febetron irradiation of mixtures containing 1–50 mol% oxygen and each of the five rare gases. The maximum values of G(O3) calculated using the energy absorbed only in the rare gas are obtained with the addition of less than 10% oxygen and are for: He, 16; Ne, 14; Ar, 11; Kr, 10; Xe, 12; each with an uncertainty of less than ±10%. On the addition of 0.2 mol% SF6 these yields are reduced to 6,5,1,2, and 2.5 respectively.These values are compared with those derived from ion and excited state yields and the contributions of subexcitation electrons.

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.

Collision-induced microwave absorption has been observed at 2.3 cm−1 for the rare gas mixtures Ne–Kr, Ar–Kr, Ar–Xe, and Kr–Xe. The absorption coefficient has been measured at room temperature for density products up to 8000 amagat2 and for various density ratios. These results have been used in conjunction with those of the infrared region to determine more accurately the zeroth moment for each of the spectra and hence have allowed improved values for the induced dipole moment parameters for the exponential model. Upper limits to the absorption in He–Xe and He–Ar mixtures in the microwave region have also been established.
