The anion efficiency curves as a function of the initial electron energy were measured for the cluster sizes n = 2–8, 10, 13, 16, and 19. The present experimental results show that the shape of the resonance yields is dependent on the size of the water cluster anion. The results are discussed in terms of the different electron states available for the excess electron from a linear cluster structure to three-dimensional cluster structures as the number of water molecules within the cluster increases.","PeriodicalId":16799,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics B","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135584868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The non-adiabatic dynamics results, such as reaction probabilities and integral cross sections, are calculated and compared with previous adiabatic values. The adiabatic values are several tens of times larger than those of the non-adiabatic results. The non-adiabatic effect becomes stronger with the increase in the number of excited vibrational states. In addition, the excitation of the vibrational states of H 2 can increase the reaction probability of the reaction channel. However, the KH product is still barely formed through the K(4s 2 S) + H 2 reaction, even if the H 2 molecule is excited to a high vibrational excited state, which also leads to the opposite conclusion from the adiabatic results. The forward-biased differential cross sections indicate that a direct stripping mechanism plays a dominant role in the reaction.","PeriodicalId":16799,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics B","volume":"166 S350","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135775757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of transmission loss and detection loss on the measurement accuracy are discussed. The detection accuracy of this scheme is compared with that of the conventional SU (1,1) interferometer.

The analytical solutions provide us with precise balance conditions required for the formation of asymmetric solitons. We also show that the degree of asymmetry can be effectively manipulated by adjusting the background density flow of dark soliton element, initial relative phase between two soliton elements, and their width.

The total pressure of the N 2 –H 2 mixture was 500 Torr, and the molar ratios of H 2 were 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6 and 0.8, respectively. The v ″ = 6 vibrational state of the electronic ground-state manifold X 1 Σ g + of N 2 was selectively excited by overtone pumping, and the population evolution was monitored using CARS spectroscopy. The collisional deactivation rate coefficients of the excited state N 2 ( v ″ = 6) with H 2 and N 2 are approximately 2.59 × 10 −14 cm 3 s −1 and 1.04 × 10 −14 cm 3 s −1 at 300 K, and 2.57 × 10 −14 cm 3 s −1 and 0.54 × 10 −14 cm 3 s −1 at 320 K, respectively. The relaxation rate coefficient of the N 2 –H 2 collision was approximately 2.5 and 5 times that of the self-relaxation rate coefficient. The experimental results show that the population densities of the (1,2), (2,2), (3,5), and (3,6) levels of H 2 have a maximum at 320 K, while the population densities of (2,3) and (2,4) show little change with increasing temperature. Simultaneously, the time-resolved CARS profiles of the vibrational levels v = 6,5,4 by preparing v = 6 of N 2 also indicated that a near-resonant multi-quantum relaxation process occurred between N 2 –H 2 . The collision-induced population distribution of H 2 was observed at molar ratios of 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6 and 0.8, respectively.
