We experimentally determined the pressure limits that can be used to autoclavebond RTNS-II targets without crushing the internal cooling channels. The maximum pressures are 40 to 55 MPa (6 to 8 ksi) in trv? 300-to-450°C temperature regime.

due to their importance for the spectroscopic applications in the IR, Visible and UV regions. For all the excited states potential energy, electronic angular momenta, spin orbit and (transition) dipole moment curves were generated. We use these ab initio curves to predict rovibronic spectra of SO and SiN as well as their lifetimes. We aim to construct accurate molecular line lists for these molecules, which will require an empirical refinement of the ab initio curves in order to improve the quality of the predictions of experimental spectra.
