Microphysical Properties of Single and Mixed-Phase Arctic Clouds Derived from AERI Observations

Description: A novel new approach to retrieve cloud microphysical properties from mixed-phase clouds is presented. This algorithm retrieves cloud optical depth, ice fraction, and the effective size of the water and ice particles from ground-based, high-resolution infrared radiance observations. The theoretical basis is that the absorption coefficient of ice is stronger than that of liquid water from 10-13 mm, whereas liquid water is more absorbing than ice from 16-25 um. However, due to strong absorption in… more

Chemical shift anisotropies of /sup 1/H in H/sub 2/O(s), H/sub 2/S(s), and C/sub 6/H/sub 6/(s)

Description: The proton NMR in powdered samples of H/sub 2/O(s), H/sub 2/S(s), and C/sub 6/H/sub 6/(s) have been studied by multiple pulse line narrowing techniques. The resultant spectra provide nuclear magnetic shielding tensors that are (at least approximately) axially symmetric. The anisotropy is 34.2 +- 1.0 ppM for ice, 11.1 +- 1.0 ppM for the highest-temperature phase of solid hydrogen sulfide, and -5.3 +- 0.3 for benzene. Comparisons are made with previous experimental and theoretical work.

Surface structures from low energy electron diffraction: Atoms, small molecules and an ordered ice film on metal surfaces

Description: We investigated the surface bonding of various adsorbates (0, S, C{sub 2}H{sub 3} and NO) along with the resulting relaxation of the Pt(111) surface using low energy electron diffiraction (LEED). LEED experiments have been performed on these ordered overlayers along with theoretical structural analysis using automated tensor LEED (ATLEED). The resulting surface structures of these ordered overlayers exhibit similar adsorbate-induced relaxations. In all cases the adsorbate occupies the fcc hollo… more
