Experimental consequences

We have used limiting cases to describe the lowest energy excited states of dihydrogen in the different anisotropic attractive fields, 0 gives a planar, or 2-D type state, (7= 1, M= 1), and a 0 gives an upright, or 1-D type (7= 1, M= 0). The perturbed deep potential 2-DP type was also presented. 

The assignment of appropriate models to a given system has not always been strongly foimded. The number of observable rotational transitions is few and the presence of any translational vibrations merely complicates the picture. Often several similar solutions can be found for widely different a and h values [11]. Perhaps the greatest possibility for confusion occurs between 1-D and 2-DP type spectra. Early INS work avoided a full description of the potential in terms of spherical harmonics and usually worked within simplifying approximations specific to individual cases. The relationship between those models and the forms we develop here is not necessarily straightforward. 

In what follows, we shall discuss the use of INS in the study of dihydrogen as a molecular probe of the interaction between the molecule and its environment.

Despite the fact that Model C65 does not explicitly invoke complexation of the interstitial cation with the alkene linkage, extensive experimental61,62 and computational66 precedent suggests that complexation is thermodynamically favorable. The interaction between the alkene and the cation serves to anchor the substrate near the supercage wall where the cation is located (Fig. 1). The proximity to the framework wall has experimental consequences as revealed by examination of the... 

There are some potentially useful experimental consequences of TIR excitation through a thin metal film coated on glass. As discussed in Section 5.3, fluorescence from molecules less than 10 nm from the metal is strongly quenched. However, TIR can still be used to selectively excite fluorophores in the 10- to 200-nm distance range from metal-film-coated glass. Also, a... 

This is, not surprisingly, nearly identical to the Landau-Zener corrected transition state theory above (Eq. 6) exact equivalence is obtained if the transition state theory prefactor is taken to be (co/ti) rather than Eyring s (hgT/h), and the numerical difference between these two conceptually different prefactors [49] is often small enough as to be of little experimental consequence. 

Another possibly problematical observation is that the D/H ratio of the Earth s oceans is roughly half that measured in comets, but is similar to that for carbonaceous chondrites (Fig. 14.10). For this reason, Dauphas et al. (2000) calculated that no more than 10% of our planet s H20 was accreted as comet ice, a conclusion consistent with dynamical constraints (Morbedelli et al., 2000). Despite the importance that D/H measurements have been given in recent publications, fractionation of these isotopes when ice is sublimated has been demonstrated experimentally. Consequently, the measurements of D/H in comet comae may not...

Let us now consider a number of different situations and their experimental consequences with the aid of figure 6.26. This diagram illustrates four different situations concerning the relative populations of the two non-degenerate states. In case (i) the... 

The latter is an ordinary number (associated with a chosen unit system), but the former refers to the complex interdependences between first and second derivatives of U. The experimental consequences of the theory are generally expressed as relationships between measured in,/ values, with each /% representing the limiting proportionality of response dll, to stimulus dXj (other control variables being fixed). 

Core Floods. At present the strong coupling between droplet size and flow has major experimental consequences (1) flow experiments must be performed under steady-state conditions (since otherwise the results may be controlled by long-lived, uninterpretable transients) (2) in situ droplet sizes cannot be obtained from measurements on an injected or produced dispersion (because these can change at core faces and inside the core) and (3) care must be taken that pressure drops measured across porous media are not dominated by end effects. Likewise, since abrupt droplet size changes can occur inside a porous medium, if the flow appears to be independent of the injected droplet-size distribution, it is likely that a new distribution is quickly forming inside the medium (38). 

Up to this point we have mainly considered homogeneous broadening where the vibrational correlation function C(t) may be reduced to single exponential decay. This limit is not always verified, and it is interesting to examine the experimental consequences to be expected in these cases.

Another aspect of the effect of electrolytes on the solubility of a salt is the concept of the solubility product for poorly soluble substances. The experimental consequences of this phenomenon are that if the concentration of a common ion is high, then the other ion becomes low in a saturated solution of the substance, that is, precipitation occurs. Conversely, the effect of foreign ions on the solubility of sparingly soluble salts is just the opposite, and the solubility increases. This is called the salt effect. 

These facts have important experimental consequences. Thus, let us consider polystyrene solutions in a poor solvent like cyclohexane at 40 °C. By lowering the temperature gradually, we can observe effects revealing the existence of attractive interactions between the polystyrene chains and also between monomers belonging to the same chain. We shall present here three significant experimental observations. 

We are able to show that in a well-packed (i.e., a uniform column), this concept gives rise to a term that is practically constant over the range of interest, that is, in accordance with the van Deemter equation. In a nonuniform bed, on the other hand, it gives rise to the curvature of the increasing branch of the HETP-velocity plot that has been observed experimentally. Consequently, a uniform, well-packed bed can be described by the van E>eemter equation, while a poorly packed bed needs to be described by an equation that contains a term incorporating the curvature. 

This work on correlation functions, when generalized to mixtures, led to two equivalent, though superficially different, formally exact theories of solutions, due to Joseph Mayer and William McMillan (McMillan and Mayer 1945) and to John Kirkwood and Frank Buff (Kirkwood and Buff 1951). These theories and their experimental consequences form the bulk of the material in the remainder of this book. Before discussing them, however, let us describe several approximate theories, which had a considerable vogue in the 1950s and 1960s but which are not much used nowadays. 

In view of the very slow time decay of the time correlation functions, it is not clear to what extent the Navier-Stokes transport coefficients can be used even in three dimensions to describe phenomena that vary on a time scale of 50tc, for on this time scale there is not yet a clear separation of microscopic and macroscopic effects. However, usually the Navier-Stokes equations are applied to phenomena that vary on a much longer time scale, and then the slow decay of the correlation functions does not interfere with the hydrodynamic processes. Nevertheless, the divergences of the Burnett and higher-order transport coefficients do appear to have experimental consequences even for three-dimensional systems. In particular, it appears that the dispersion relation for the sound wave frequency wave number k can no longer be expressed as a power series in k as was done in Eq. (133) but instead that fractional powers of the form for /i = l,2,... 

There are many excellent accounts of both the theory of optical processes in general (Ziman 1972 Butcher and Cotter 1990 Mukamel 1995 and Loudon 2000), and optical processes in organic (Pope and Swenberg 1999) and inorganic materials (Henderson and Imbusch 1989), in particular. It is the purpose of this chapter to describe some of the important linear and nonlinear optical processes that enable us to establish a connection between the theories of electronic states described in this book and their experimental consequences.
