Formation of van der Waals Tryptophan Clusters in Seeded Beam Expansion

Tatsuo Arikawa, Hisayuki YAZAWA

Stable van der Waals clusters of tryptophan molecules, (Trp) n , of up to n=5, were produced in a seeded supersonic beam expansion from a laser desorption nozzle source. Translational beam temperatures of van der Waals tryptophan clusters were measured using a fast optical imaging device. Estimated beam temperatures in carrier argon gas were 27 K for tryptophan dimers (n=2) and 41 K for tryptophan trimers (n=3). A preliminary experiment showed that no significant difference was observed in the yield of van der Waals clusters for L-, D- and racemic-tryptophan molecules.Stable van der Waals clusters of tryptophan molecules, (Trp) n , of up to n=5, were produced in a seeded supersonic beam expansion from a laser desorption nozzle source.

High-temperature high-pressure all-metal pulsed source of van der Waals dimers: Towards the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment

Tomasz Urbańczyk, J. Koperski

An all-metal pulsed source of van der Waals (vdW) dimers was constructed; it operates at temperatures up to 1000 K and carrier gas stagnation pressures up to 10 bars. Performance of the source was demonstrated in the production and spectroscopy of both CdAr and Cd(2) molecules in a supersonic beam expansion. Simulation of the recorded laser induced fluorescence (LIF) excitation spectra using the B(3)1(5(3)P(1)) ← X(1)0(+)(5(1)S(0)) and b(3)0(u)(+)(5(3)P(1))←X(1)0(g)(+)(5(1)S(0)) transitions in CdAr and Cd(2), respectively, showed that these molecules were produced with a rotational temperature in the range from 3 K to 19 K. The source was incorporated into an experimental set-up dedicated to the realization of Bohm's spin-1/2 particle version of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment for ((111)Cd)(2) molecules.An all-metal pulsed source of van der Waals (vdW) dimers was constructed; it operates at temperatures up to 1000 K and carrier gas stagnation pressures up to 10 bars.
