Gas Phase Heat Capacity (Shomate Equation)

C_p° = A + B*t + C*t² + D*t³ + E/t²
H° − H°_298.15= A*t + B*t²/2 + C*t³/3 + D*t⁴/4 − E/t + F − H
S° = A*ln(t) + B*t + C*t²/2 + D*t³/3 − E/(2*t²) + G
C_p = heat capacity (cal/mol*K)
H° = standard enthalpy (kcal/mol)
S° = standard entropy (cal/mol*K)
t = temperature (K) / 1000.

Notes

X-ray absorption (3sσ ← 1s_N).

X-ray absorption and emission (1π_g ↔ 1s_N), broad peak. 119

Absorption cross sections 140000-500000 cm-1 Lee, Carlson, et al., 1973, Watson, Lang, et al., 1973.

From high-energy electron impact spectroscopy.

First two members of Codling's Rydberg series. 120

Longward of the apparent emission "lines" are close-lying fairly sharp absorption "lines" Ogawa and Tanaka, 1962. Both features belong to the same Fano shape produced by the interaction of the series of Rydberg levels with the continuum joining on to the A ²Π (or, less likely, X ²Σ) limit.

Similar series with v'=1.

The first three members at 138330, 144090, 146690 cm^-1 are very broad (presumably because of preionization), the higher members are sharper and shaded to the red. No rotational structure has been resolved. Preionization also observed by electron spectroscopy Hicks, Comer, et al., 1973, Wilden, Hicks, et al., 1976.

Oscillator strengths from absorption coefficients: f(m=3,4,..) = 0.0131, 0.0053, ... Cook and Ogawa, 1970.
