✦ Synopsis
The electronic spectroscopy of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is of particular interest for astrophysicists since these molecules are suggested as possible carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands. Here we report on our study of the S 1 )S 0 transition of 2,3-benzofluorene (or benzo[b]fluorene) in the gas phase and in He droplets using cavity ring-down spectroscopy in a supersonic jet expansion and molecular beam depletion spectroscopy, respectively. The same techniques were also employed to identify the PAHs contained in the carbonaceous powder which was produced by CO 2 laser pyrolysis of a mixture of ethylene and benzene vapor. Phenanthrene and anthracene were unambiguously confirmed as components of the as-synthesized soot.

Infrared fluorescence and double infrared resonance have been used to measure the V-T relaxation of CD3F and CD 4 in mixtures with He, He, At, Kr, Xe and HCI in the gas phase and in the liquid Ar, Kr, Xe. It is shown that the temperature dependence of V-T probabilities in the interval 350-150°K can
