Shalashilin and Thompson [46-48] developed a method based on classical diffusion theory for calculating unimolecular reaction rates in the IVR-limited regime. This method, which they referred to as intramolecular dynamics diffusion theory (IDDT) requires the calculation of short-time ( fs) classical trajectories to determine the rate of energy transfer from the bath modes of the molecule to the reaction coordinate modes. This method, in conjunction with MCVTST, spans the full energy range from the statistical to the dynamical limits. It in essence provides a means of accurately...

Energy Considerations and Spark Characteristics. Many effects listed under items 1 to 7 play important roles in spark initiation because they affect the aimt and rate of energy transfer from the storage capacitor to the spark gap. The energy delivery. can be detd in part by observations made on the electrical circuit. MSW carried out these measurements for a number of tests and provided some analytical treatment of their circuits. The only. quantitative result which. can be drawn from their work is that only about 15% of the stored energy was actually delivered to the spark gap when a series resistance greater than 1000 ohms was placed in the circuit (Ref 35,p 13)... 

Emissivity tg is therefore the ratio of the rate of energy transfer from the gas to the surface element to the rate of transfer from a black hemispherical surface of radius L and temperature Tg to the same surface element. Figure 14.11 shows how Eg for carbon dioxide varies with radius L and partial pressure pg. Figure 14.11 applies at a total pressure p of 1 atm Fig. 14,12 gives the correction factor for finding Eg at other total pressures. 

The first such study was one by Keizer, who considered a hetero-nuclear diatomic in a viscous continuum. He showed that if the two atomic masses differ there is a dynamic coupling between the center of mass motion and the vibrational coordinate. Applying a hydrodynamic model to the reliixation of the center of mass momentum, he gave an expression for the rate of energy transfer from the vibrational degrees of freedom. Keizer used the resulting equation to calculate relaxation rates of heteronuclear... 

The rate of energy transfer from the benzotriazole chromophore to the hydroperoxy groups is controlled by the lifetime of the excited state, as long as it is higher than 1.5 ev approximately. Details of decay mechanisms of the excited states will be published later. Here we will note that the principal feature of the deactivation mechanism involves an intramolecular proton transfer process which may occur before vibrational equilibration of the vertical excited state is completed. The fluorescence has a blue (X-max = 405 nm) and a red (X.max = 585 nm) component, with the blue component only being present at room temperature in dilute solution, and at low temperatures in polar matrices. The red component is present in emission at room temperature from polycrystalline powders and at low temperatures in hydrocarbon matrices. It may be postulated that the blue component arises from a vibra-tionally excited 0-protonated species, while the red component arises from a proton transferred zwitterionic excited state. Phosphorescence is detected from the model compound (II) in polar matrices at 77K. Table II gives some excited state lifetime data on the copolymer and model systems. 

In luminescence studies of the mixed metal complexes, [(ttpy)Ru(dpb-ph -dpb)Os(ttpy)p, it was found that the rate of energy transfer from the ruthenium center to the osmium center was orders of magnitude slower than in y-ph,-tpy systems [55]. For [(ttpy)Ru(dpb-dpb)Os(ttpy)] + the en -gy transfer rate was...
