Water dimers in the atmosphere III: equilibrium constant from a flexible potential.

TL;DR: New results for the water dimer equilibrium constant K(p)(T) are presented, using a flexible potential energy surface fitted to spectroscopical data and an analysis of the convergence of the partition function reveals that quasi-bound states are likely to contribute to the equilibrium constant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of cations on the hydrogen bond network of liquid water: new results from X-ray absorption spectroscopy of liquid microjets.

TL;DR: Marked changes in the liquid water XAS are observed, indicating that interactions with the dissolved monovalent cations do not significantly perturb the unoccupied molecular orbitals of water molecules in the vicinity of the cations and that water-chloride interactions are primarily responsible for the observed spectral changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the hydration and hydrolysis of carbon dioxide

TL;DR: The first X-ray absorption spectra of aqueous carbonate have been measured at three different pH values to characterize the evolution of electronic structure of carbonate, bicarbonate, carbonic acid and dissolved CO2 as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectroscopic determination of the water dimer intermolecular potential-energy surface

TL;DR: In this paper, two polarizable six-dimensional water dimer intermolecular potential surfaces were determined by fitting the distributed multipole ASP (anisotropic site potential) potential form to microwave, terahertz, and midinfrared cavity ringdown (D2O)2 spectra via a rigorous calculation of the water dimers eigenstates with the PSSH (pseudo-spectral split Hamiltonian) method.
