X Abstract

The radial potentials of the X2[Pi]3/2, A2[Pi]3/2, X2[Pi]1/2, and A2[Pi]1/2 states of ClO have been estimated using literature data on UV absorption cross sections and the spectral band origins including their convergence limit. From these and an estimate of the radial dependence of the electronic transition moment, the UV absorption cross sections of ClO can be calculated for any temperature. The accuracy and spectral resolution depends on the approximations used in the computation and the quality of the measurements analyzed. Four different approaches have been used to calculate the ClO spectra, the discrete matrix method, the continuous matrix method, the moments method, and the reflection method III. The strengths and weaknesses of these methods are discussed. Two recent measurements of the UV absorption cross sections of ClO have been compared with the calculated spectrum. The origin of minor differences is attributed to limitations in these experiments.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
