	abstract = {A novel method is exploited in this report to directly determine the relative detection sensitivity of the (2+1) resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) bands of CH3 and CHD2 radicals. The basic idea is based on the simple fact that in an infrared (IR) absorption process the number of molecules being pumped from the lower state must be the same as the number of molecules in the excited upper state. Hence, the measured intensities of the respective REMPI bands should directly reflect their relative detection sensitivities. In order to ensure the processes involved and better quantify the measurements, extensive IR-UV double resonance spectroscopy was also performed. Using the REMPI-IR scheme, the IR spectrum of the vi fundamental (CH stretch) of CHD2 was obtained and assigned for the first time. Using the IR-REMPI approach, high-resolution (2+1) REMPI spectra via the Rydberg 3p states of both radicals were demonstrated in a rotationally specific manner for both the origin and vibronic-excited bands, from which the predissociation rates of the Rydberg 3p states were deduced.},

In all cases, thermodynamically stable cis-complexes are formed from initially formed trans-species.},

	abstract = {Thermal activation of Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CPhCH2)(CH2SiMe3) (1) in neat hydrocarbon solutions transiently generates Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-PhC=CH) (A), which subsequently activates solvent C-H bonds. For example, the thermolysis of 1 in benzene solution generates quantitatively Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CPhCH2)(Ph) (2) The thermolysis of 1 in solutions of methyl-substituted arenes such as toluene or p-, m-, or o-xylene provides mixtures of aryl and benzyl vinyl complexes of the general formulas Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CPhCH2)(aryl), Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CPhCH2)(eta(1)-benzyl), or Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-benzyl)(eta(1)-CPh=CH2). Similarly, the thermolysis of 1 in (Me3Si)(2)O affords Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CPhCH2)(CH2SiMe2OSiMe3) (10). Mechanistic and kinetic studies support the proposal that the formation of A from 1 by elimination of silane is the rate-controlling process in these reactions. Intra- and intermolecular selectivity studies reveal that the strongest C-H bond (yielding the stronger M-C bond) is the preferred site of reactivity, as expected. Dual C-H bond activation of aliphatic hydrocarbons occurs during the thermal activation ;of I in solutions of these substrates. Consequently, metallacycles of the form Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CH(eta(2)-Ph)CH2CH(R)CH2) [(11)R = Pr-n; (12)R = Bu-n; (13)R = Bu-t; and (14)R = OEt] result from the dehydrogenation of n-pentane, n-hexane, 2,2-dimethylbutane, and diethyl ether, respectively. This dual C-H activation process displays a selectivity for substrates that contain an ethyl substituent. Dual C-H bond activation of 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene in the presence of 1 under thermolysis conditions regioselectively affords Cp*W(NO)(eta(3)-endo-CH2C(Me)C(Me)CH2(eta(1)-CPhMe)) (15), Attempts to trap acetylene complex A with PNMe3 result in the formation of the metallacyclopropane complex Cp*W(NO)(CH2SiMe3)(eta(2)-CH2CPh(PMe3)) (16). All new complexes have been characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods, and the solid-state molecular structures of compounds 11, 15, and 16 have been established by X-ray diffraction methods.},

	abstract = {A comparison of WKB (Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) and SWKB eigenfunctions of the Schrodinger equation for potentials in the class encountered in supersymmetric quantum mechanics is presented. The potentials that are studied are those that result from the transformation of a Fokker-Planck eigenvalue problem to a Schrodinger equation. Linear Fokker-Planck equations of the type considered in this paper give the probability distribution function for a large number of physical situations. The time-dependent solutions can be expressed as a sum of exponential terms with each term characterized by an eigenvalue of the Fokker-Planck operator. The specific Fokker-Planck operator considered is the one that describes the thermalization of electrons in the inert gases. The WKB and SWKB semiclassical approximations are compared with exact numerical results. Although the eigenvalues can be very close to the exact values, we find significant departures for the eigenfunctions.},
