Molecular Interactions and Hydrogen Bond Tunneling Dynamics: Some New Perspectives

TL;DR: Far-infrared studies of a variety of interactions are discussed, including several prototypical water-hydrophobe complexes, the water trimer, and the ammonia dimer, with particular attention paid to the inversion of spectroscopic data to yield detailed intermolecular potential energy surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociative recombination of rotationally cold H 3

TL;DR: In this article, a dc discharge pinhole supersonic jet source was developed and characterized using infrared cavity ringdown spectroscopy before installation on the CRYRING ion storage ring for the dissociative recombination (DR) measurement of electrons with rotationally and vibrationally cold ions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of Structural Rearrangements in the Water Trimer

TL;DR: In this paper, the internal dynamics of the hydrogen bonding network of the cyclic water trimer were investigated by tunable far-infrared laser spectroscopy, and two classes of structural rearrangements were identified to account for these effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of alkaline earth metal ion complexation on amino acid zwitterion stability: results from infrared action spectroscopy.

TL;DR: The structures of isolated alkaline earth metal cationized amino acids are investigated using infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy and theory and results indicate that arginine, glutamine, proline, serine, and valine all adopt zwitterionic structures when complexed with divalent barium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fully coupled six-dimensional calculations of the water dimer vibration-rotation-tunneling states with a split Wigner pseudo spectral approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a pseudospectral method for performing fully coupled six-dimensional bound state dynamics calculations is presented, including overall rotational effects, using a Lanczos based iterative diagonalization scheme.
