It was theorized that measures of objective difference tones found in a previous experiment were artifacts of test instrumentation. In an experiment that eliminated most of the possible error-producing instrumentation, no environmental difference tones were detected, although perceptual ones were. A recommendation is made that future research regarding combination tones be conducted using complex tones rather than sine tones, which do not occur in music.

The induced infrared fundamental band of hydrogen dissolved (~1:100) in solid argon was studied with a 20-cm absorption path length at −191 °C. Transparent crystals were prepared by slow cooling of the liquid solution saturated with hydrogen at ~25 atm pressure. The H2 transitions, Q, S(0), and S(1), show similar patterns of five maxima, each of which can be analyzed as a zero-phonon line at the H2 frequency and summation and difference tones with lattice transition frequencies, 112 and 22 cm−1. The 112-cm−1 frequency is interpreted as arising from a localized lattice vibration involving an H2 molecule on a substitutional lattice site. Calculation from a model of an H2 molecule moving in the field of its argon neighbors, considered stationary, gave 109 cm−1 for this frequency. The origins of the zero-phonon lines and the 22-cm−1 lattice transition frequency are not so clear, and several possibilities are discussed. The H2 frequencies are shifted from their free-molecule values by the sum of a vibrational shift, Δνvlb = −17 cm−1, and rotational shifts corresponding to ΔB = −0.52 cm−1.

The Raman spectra of liquid (CD3)3CH and (CD3)3CD were obtained photoelectrically together with depolarization ratios, and the infrared spectra of the corresponding gases were obtained from 3 to 35 μ. A vibrational assignment consistent with depolarization ratios and band contours has been made for the molecules on the basis of C3v symmetry. The spectra have been correlated with the spectra of (CH3)3CH and (CH3)3CD and modified assignments for two modes have been given for these molecules. Tentative assignments have been made for the 'inactive' A2 modes (which are 'active' if the molecule has symmetry C3) to explain some of the observed frequencies around 1000 cm.−1 which could not be satisfactorily assigned as summation or difference tones.
