Gas Phase Heat Capacity (Shomate Equation)

Cp° = 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

7Radiative lifetime τ=l4.6 ns Smith, 1969, f00= 0.055 Smith, 1969. The corresponding electronic transition moment is in only moderate agreement with Cooper and Nicholls, 1975. Franck-Condon factors Nicholls, Fraser, et al., 1959, Halmann and Laulicht, 1966.

11The ΔG and Bv curves are irregular Phillips, 1950, Messerle and Krauss, 1967, 2 and cannot be represented by the constants given without the use of higher order terms. The perturbation is strongest near v=5. Breaking-off at high J observed Messerle and Krauss, 1967 in v=0, 1, 2.

13A= -16.9.
14 Kini and Savadatti, 1969 have observed bands up to v'=14
15Numerous small perturbations by higher levels of b 3Σg- Callomon and Gilby, 1963 and X 1Σg+ Phillips, 1968 and by unidentified states. Swan bands emitted in low-pressure oxy-acetylene flames show a distinct intensity alternation ascribed to excitation by collisions with c 3Σu+ carbon molecules Bleekrode and Nieuwpoort, 1965, Bleekrode, 1967. Under certain conditions in discharges through CO the v'=6 progression of the Swan system appears almost exclusively and was at one time considered as a separate band system, the so-called high-pressure bands of carbon Herzberg, 1946, Kunz, Harteck, et al., 1967, Meinel and Messerle, 1968*. Isotope studies Dhumwad and Narasimham, 1968 leave no doubt that the high-pressure bands are the v'=6 progression of the Swan system.
16Radiative lifetime τ = 170 ns Smith, 1969, in reasonable agreement with Fink and Welge, 1967 but much shorter than Jeunehomme and Schwenker, 1965. f values obtained from the lifetime measurements as well as by other methods Fairbairn, 1966, Harrington, Modica, et al., 1966, Sviridov, Sobolev, et al., 1966, Arnold, 1968 have been reviewed in Danylewych and Nicholls, 1974. The latter authors' expression for the r dependence of the electronic transition moment was placed on an absolute scale using an average f00 = 0.020. For a more recent measurement of the electronic transition moment see Cooper and Nicholls, 1975. Franck-Condon factors Nicholls, Fraser, et al., 1959, Jain, 1964, Ortenberg, 1964, Spindler, 1965, Halmann and Laulicht, 1966.

29Average of thermochemical values Brewer, Hicks, et al., 1962, Kordis and Gingerich, 1973. Smaller values of 6.07 and 6.11 eV have been derived on the basis of a somewhat doubtful extrapolation of the vibrational levels in d 3Πg Messerle and Krauss, 1967, 3 and of an extrapolated limiting curve of the C 1Πg state Messerle and Krauss, 1967.
