A basic theoretical understanding of stable isotope fractionations can help researchers plan
and interpret both laboratory experiments and measurements on natural samples. The goal …

Equilibrium chlorine-isotope (37Cl/35Cl) fractionations have been determined by using
published vibrational spectra and force-field modeling to calculate reduced partition function …

We present a novel, previously unreported phenomenon appearing in a thermal gas of
nonlinear polar molecules excited by a single THz pulse. We find that the induced …

Two new nine-dimensional potential energy surfaces (PESs) have been generated using
high-level ab initio theory for the two main isotopologues of methyl chloride, CH 3 35 Cl and …

The effective dipole moment model for molecules of axial C 3 v symmetry is derived on the
basis of the symmetry properties of a molecule which, on the one hand, is of the same order …

It is demonstrated that the contraction of the C–H bonds of fluoromethanes in some subclass
of blue-shifting complexes and the concomitant blue shifts of their stretching vibrational …

Chloromethane is the only organochloride detected in space to date. Its recent observation
towards the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293-2422 with ALMA offers a prompt for new …

The vibrational levels for two isotopic species of methyl chloride have been calculated in the
region 0–3500cm− 1 from the ab initio potential energy surface (PES). The isotopic shift of …

The photodissociation of jet-cooled vibrationally excited CH3Cl near 235 nm has been
investigated by detection of the Cl (2P 3/2) and Cl (2P 1/2) photofragments through …

The isotopically pure form of methyl chloride, CH2D35Cl, was synthesized and investigated
by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with an unapodized resolution of 0.004 cm− 1 in …
