    Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, University of British Columbia; Department of Chemistry, Lumbda Physik, Inc.Excitation spectra of the new molecules YOH and YOD have been recorded in the 500-625 nm wavelength region by laser-induced fluorescence, following reaction of laser-ablated yttrium with H2OH_{2}O or D2OD_{2}O under supersonic jet-cooled molecular beam conditions. Rotational analyses of 1Σ+Xˉ1Σ+^{1}\Sigma^{+} - \bar{X}^{1}\Sigma^{+} bands near 540 nm at high resolution gave the following substitution structure for the ground state: X~Σ:r(YO)=1.948  A˚;  r(OH)=0.921  A˚. \tilde{X}\Sigma^{-}: r(Y-O) = 1.948\; {\textrm{\AA}};\; r(O-H) = 0.92_{1} \;\textrm{\AA}. Wavelength-resolved fluorescence spectra have given the ground state vibrational frequencies YOH(YOD):ν2,  bend=314(247)  cm1;ν3,  YO  stretch=674(654)cm1 YOH (YOD): \nu^{2},\; bend = 314 (247)\;cm^{-1}; \nu^{3},\; YO\;stretch = 674 (654)cm^{-1} No evidence for the ν1\nu_{1} (OH stretch) mode was observed. Very complicated weak structure at the long wavelength end may possibly correspond to a singlet-triplet transition

    AN UPDATE ON THE VISIBLE REGION SPECTRUM OF YOH

    Author Institution: Chemistry Department, University of British Columbia; Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of British Columbia; Lambda Physik, Inc., 3201 West Commercial Blvd.Further analysis of the visible region electronic band systems of YOH and YOD has been performed. Three electronic states, X~1Σ+,B~1Π\tilde{X}^{1}\Sigma^{+}, \tilde{B}^{1}\Pi and C~1Σ+\tilde{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+}, have been found. Wavelength-resolved fluorescence spectra have given a large amount of information about the vibrational frequencies of the X~1Σ+\tilde{X}^{1} \Sigma^{+} state. Exciting from the v2=1v^{\prime \prime}_{2} = 1 level of the ground state, we have been able to determine the separation of the l=2l = 2 or 0 levels. The geometric structure of the ground state is found to be r(YO)=1.94840(58)r(Y-O)= 1.94840(58){\AA} and r(OH)=0.9215(53)r(O-H)= 0.9215(53){\AA}. Due to the perturbed nature of the B~1Π\tilde{B}^{1}\Pi, and C~1Σ+\tilde{C}^{1} \Sigma^{+} states, an accurate determination of their geometries has not been possible. We have tentatively identified several members of the ν3\nu_{3} progressions in these states

    STRONG VIBRONIC COUPLING IN THE VISIBLE SYSTEMS OF YOH AND YOD

    Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, University of New Brunswick; Department of Chemistry, University of British Columbia; Lambda-Physik, Inc., 3201 West Commercial Blvd.Extensive new spectra have been taken for the visible systems of YOH and YOD, in an attempt to establish the vibrational assignments in the very confused Bˉ1Π\bar{B}^{1}\Pi and C~1Σ+\widetilde{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+} states. It turns out that there is very strong vibronic coupling through the bending vibration between the C~1Σ+\widetilde{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+} state and the AA^{\prime} (lower) Born-Oppenheimer component of the B~1Π\tilde{B}^{1}\Pi state. The effect is that the bending frequency of the Cˉ1Σ+\bar{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+} state is increased by 50\% relative to the ground state, while that of the AA^{\prime} component of the B~1Π\widetilde{B}^{1}\Pi state is reduced so far that the molecule becomes non-linear, with a potential barrier of about 120cm1120 cm^{-1} at the linear configuration; the AA^{\prime \prime} (upper) component of the B~1Π\widetilde{B}^{1}\Pi state is not affected. The principal evidence for the barrier is that the 010 Σ+\Sigma^{+} vibronic level lies 1.4cm11.4 cm^{-1} below the 000 level (linear molecule notation) in the B~1Π\widetilde{B}^{1}\Pi state of YOD. The density of the level structure in the C~1Σ+\widetilde{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+} state arises partly because higher levels of the B~1Π\widetilde{B}^{1}\Pi state lying among the levels of the C~1Σ+\widetilde{C}^{1}\Sigma^{+} state gain intensity through the vibronic coupling

    ELECTRONIC RAMAN EFFECT OF TRIVALENT RARE EARTH IONS IN GARNET HOST LATTICES

    No full text
    Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, Carleton UniversityWe wish to report on the observation and interpretation of some electronic Raman transitions between Stark levels of the split J manifolds of Eu:YGaG and Nd:YGaG. The transitions were studied at 300K300^{\circ} K and 77K77^{\circ} K. The detection of the weak spectra was accomplished with a 9558 B photomultiplier, followed by an electronic amplification system proposed by Pao and Griffith1Griffith^{1}. The experimental data suggest (I) a lowering in the site symmetry of the rare earth ions to D2D_{2} if compared with the D2bD_{2b} site symmetry of the Yttrium ion of YGaG and (II) the intensity of the electronic Raman transitions is down by a factor of 10210^{-2} if compared with the intensity of some strong fluorescence lines of the ions. 1^{1} Yoh-Han Pao and J.

    Pogo accumulator optimization based on multiphysics of liquid rockets and neural networks

    No full text
    In this study, a numerical analysis of pogo instability in liquid propulsion rockets was conducted and an optimization of the pogo suppressor was attempted. Pogo analysis was carried out using numerical results obtained via the major models for fuselage structure, feedline, and propulsion systems. In the structural system, the fuselage vibration modes were obtained and the relevant meta-model was constructed using the modal superposition method. To obtain accurate results for the hydraulic transmission line modeling, cavitation effects were also taken into account. Thus, a numerical analysis was performed on a pump inducer to provide the quantitative information of the cavitation volume in the liquid-oxygen feedline. By employing the rocket combustion equations, it was confirmed that the dynamic response was fed back to the longitudinal characteristics of the fuselage structure. In addition, an accumulator was installed to suppress pogo instability. For design optimization, an artificial neural network was suggested by performing Latin hypercube sampling. The sampling verifies the convergence by the learning process. Finally, a multi-objective optimization for the pogo accumulator was achieved with the present meta-model.Y

    Hypercortisolemia inhibits yohimbine-induced release of norepinephrine in the posterolateral hypothalamus of conscious rats

    Chronic hypercortisolemia attenuates yohimbine (YOH)-induced increments in plasma levels of the sympathetic neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE). The present study used in vivo microdialysis to study the effects of hypercortisolemia on YOH-induced release of NE in the brain. Cortisol (25 mg/kg-day) or saline was infused sc into rats for 7 days via an osmotic minipump. Microdialysate and plasma concentrations of NE and its metabolites dihydroxyphenylglycol and meth- oxyhydroxyphenylglycol were measured before and after YOH (1 mg/kg, iv) administration in conscious animals, with microdialysate and plasma collections beginning 20-24 h after probe implantation. Chronic cortisol treatment resulted in attenuated NE, ihydroxyphenylglycol, and methoxyhydroxyphenylglycol responses in both microdialysate and plasma. The results indicate that YOH increases central neural as well as peripheral release, reuptake, turnover, and metabolism of NE and that hypercortisolemia suppresses these responses. © 1992 by The Endocrine Society
