Abstract
Highly accurate ab initio calculations of vibrational and rotational-vibrational energy levels of the HCN/HNC (hydrogen cyanide/hydrogen isocyanide) isomerising system are presented for several isotopologues. All-electron multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) electronic structure calculations were performed using basis sets up to aug-cc-pCV6Z on a grid of 1541 geometries. The ab initio energies were used to produce an analytical potential energy surface (PES) describing the two minima simultaneously. An adiabatic Born-Oppenheimer diagonal correction (BODC) correction surface as well as a relativistic correction surface were also calculated. These surfaces were used to compute vibrational and rotational-vibrational energy levels up to 25 000 cm-1 which reproduce the extensive set of experimentally known HCN/HNC levels with a root-mean-square deviation σ = 1.5 cm-1. We studied the effect of nonadiabatic effects by introducing opportune radial and angular corrections to the nuclear kinetic energy operator. Empirical determination of two nonadiabatic parameters results in observed energies up to 7000 cm-1 for four HCN isotopologues (HCN, DCN, H13CN, and HC15N) being reproduced with σ = 0.37 cm-1. The height of the isomerization barrier, the isomerization energy and the dissociation energy were computed using a number of models; our best results are 16 809.4, 5312.8, and 43 729 cm-1, respectively.

Abstract
The ultraviolet photoabsorption spectra of the HCN and HNC isomers have been simulated in the 7-10 eV photon energy range. For this purpose, the three-dimensional adiabatic potential energy surfaces of the 7 lowest electronic states, and the corresponding transition dipole moments, have been calculated, at multireference configuration interaction level. The spectra are calculated with a quantum wave packet method on these adiabatic potential energy surfaces. The spectra for the 3 lower excited states, the dissociative electronic states, correspond essentially to predissociation peaks, most of them through tunneling on the same adiabatic state. The 3 higher electronic states are bound, hereafter electronic bound states, and their spectra consist of delta lines, in the adiabatic approximation. The radiative lifetime towards the ground electronic states of these bound states has been calculated, being longer than 10 ns in all cases, much longer that the characteristic predissociation lifetimes. The spectra of HCN is compared with the available experimental and previous theoretical simulations, while in the case of HNC there are no previous studies to our knowledge. The spectrum for HNC is considerably more intense than that of HCN in the 7-10 eV photon energy range, which points to a higher photodissociation rate for HNC, compared to HCN, in astrophysical environments illuminated by ultraviolet radiation.

Abstract
The lowest two rotational transitions of (02(2)0) were not detected in previous investigations. This nonobservation was ascribed to the Stark broadening caused by the electric field in a hollow cathode discharge and an extended negative glow discharge. However, rotational lines of symmetric-top ions such as CH(3)CNH(+) and SD(3)(+) were observed in extended negative glow discharges with no such Stark effect. Also, no anomalies were observed for similar lines for HCN and HNC produced in an extended negative glow discharge. In the present investigation, we extended the measurements of DCO(+) up to 800 GHz. The DCO(+) ions were produced in an extended negative glow discharge in a gas mixture of D(2) and CO (a couple of millitorr each) in Ar buffer ( approximately 12 mTorr). The measurements were made mostly at liquid nitrogen temperature. Our observations confirmed that the lowest rotational lines in (02(2)0) within our frequency coverage, J=4-3, were too weak to be detected. However, a most notable result obtained in the present investigation is that the J=5-4 and J=6-5 lines of (02(2)0) and the J=5-4 line of (04(2)0) have been detected in induced emission. This observation implies that the previous nonobservation of low-J lines in (02(2)0) may not be due to the Stark effect. The l-type splitting in (03(3)0) has been observed for the J=9-8 transition and higher. However, the splittings for the J=7-6 and J=8-7 lines that are expected to be large enough have not been resolved. The reason for this "narrowing" has been unexplained at the present stage. The population inversion suggests that, initially, DCO(+) is formed predominantly in stretching vibrational states, and, subsequently, the energy transfer to bending vibrational states takes place through collisional relaxation processes.

Abstract
An accurate single-sheeted double many-body expansion potential energy surface has been obtained for the ground electronic state of the hydrogen cyanide molecule via a multiproperty fit to ab initio energies and rovibrational data. This includes 106 rovibrational levels and 2313 discrete points, which are fit with a rmsd of 4 cm(-1) and 2.42 kcal mol(-1), respectively, and seven zero first-derivatives that are reproduced at three stationary points. Since the potential also describes accurately the appropriate asymptotic limits at the various dissociation channels, it is commended both for the simulation of rovibrational spectra and reaction dynamics.

Abstract
An experimental technique based on a scheme of vibrationally mediated photodissociation has been developed and applied to the spectroscopic study of highly excited vibrational states in HCN, with energies between 29,000 and 30,000 cm(-1). The technique consists of four sequential steps: in the first one, a high power laser is used to vibrationally excite the sample to an intermediate state, typically (0,0,4), the nu3 mode being approximately equivalent to the C-H stretching vibration. Then a second laser is used to search for transitions between this intermediate state and highly vibrationally excited states. When one of these transitions is found, HCN molecules are transferred to a highly excited vibrational state. Third, a ultraviolet laser photodissociates the highly excited molecules to produce H and CN radicals in its A 2Pi electronic state. Finally, a fourth laser (probe) detects the presence of the CN(A) photofragments by means of an A-->B-->X laser induced fluorescence scheme. The spectra obtained with this technique, consisting of several rotationally resolved vibrational bands, have been analyzed. The positions and rotational parameters of the states observed are presented and compared with the results of a state-of-the-art variational calculation.

Abstract
We have calculated an ab initio HCN/HNC linelist for all transitions up to J= 25 and 18000 cm(-1) above the zero point energy. This linelist contains more than 200 million lines each with frequencies and transition dipoles. The linelist has been calculated using our semi-global HCN/HNC VQZANO + PES and dipole moment surface, which were reported in van Mourik et al. (J. Chem. Phys. 115 (2001) 3706). With this linelist we synthesise absorption spectra of HCN and HNC at 298 K and we present the band centre and band transition dipoles for the bands which are major features in these spectra. Several of the HCN bands and many of the HNC bands have not been previously studied. Our line intensities reproduce via fully ab initio methods the unusual intensity structure of the HCN CN stretch fundamental (00(0)1) for the first time and also the forbidden (02(2)0) HCN bending overtone. We also compare the J = 1-->0 pure rotational transition dipole in the HCN/HNC ground and vibrationally excited states with experimental and existing ab initio results.

Abstract
For high values of the quantum number of the total angular momentum J (up to J = 20), quantum mechanical eigenstates (eigenvalues and eigenfunctions) are calculated by the method of Gatti et al. (J. Mol. Spectrosc. 181 (1997) 403) for the bending deformations of HCN and CNH. In particular, we have examined the l-type resonances in highly excited rovibrational states within the framework of a one-dimensional model, i.e. along the reaction pathway for the isomerization reaction HCN/CNH. The potential energy surface used is that of Bowman et al. (J. Chem. Phys. 99 (1993) 308).

Abstract
The vibron model for anharmonic vibrations of simple polyatomic molecules has been modified by explicit inclusion of the bending energy in the vibron hamiltonian, and by incorporating vibrationally and rotationally dependent terms into the main parameters of the model. These modifications keep the simple form of the basic vibron energy expressions unchanged but make them far more flexible and capable of much higher precision than those of the pure algebraic vibron model, even one with all squares and binary products of the Casimir operators included. Applications of the modified equations to the vibrational levels and rovibrational energies of the linear molecules HCN, CO(2), and some of their isotopomers show that this modified model yields precision of fitting which is better by one to two orders of magnitude than that provided by the strict algebraic model. This suggests that the modified vibron model can provide a simple but useful alternative to the much more elaborate global treatments of the rovibrational data. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.

Abstract
A laser photoacoustic technique has been used to measure the absorption spectrum of HCN in the region from 11 390 to 13 020 cm(-1) with a resolution that is limited by the Doppler- and pressure-broadened linewidth. This is a very sensitive technique that has allowed us to measure very weak bands with a small volume of gas. These measurements provide the rovibrational constants for a number of newly observed vibrational energy levels. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.

Abstract
Emission from H12C14N observed with a Fourier transform spectrometer from a radio-frequency excited plasma is reported in the 2400-3400 cm(-1) spectral range of astrophysical interest. The molecular constants, for 21 vibration-rotation bands are given, as well as estimates of the first-order Herman-Wallis coefficients for 11 bands. These constants are derived from about 900 observed transitions in HCN, and are used to generate a sequential linelist of about 1400 calculated line positions, within a standard deviation equal to 3 x 10(-4) cm(-1). The relative intensities of the observed lines are also reported, as well as those for the nu1 band of H14N12C, at 3650 cm(-1), simultaneously observed from the same plasma.

Abstract
We present the Infrared Space Observatory/Short-Wavelength Spectrometer full grating resolution spectrum of IRC +10216, which is dominated by strong absorption/emission bands of C2H2 and HCN. All C2H2 bands and the strong near-infrared stretching bands of HCN are observed in absorption, whereas the fundamental, hot, and combination bands of HCN involving the nu2 bending mode around 14 µm are observed in emission. Particularly strong is the HCN nu2=20-->nu2=11 vibrational transition at 14.3 µm. The most plausible mechanism for such emission is the radiative pumping of molecules from the ground to the nu2=20 state (7.1 µm) followed by radiative decay: nu2=20-->nu2=11. We present detailed models for HCN that verify the efficiency of the mentioned effect. The HCN abundance inferred from these models is &parl0;1.5-3&parr0;x10-5.

Abstract
Using a newly constructed Fourier transform emission apparatus, we have measured the threefold substituted HCN isotopomer, D13C15N, at 1370 K in the range from 450 to 700 cm-1. We could assign hot bands with upper states up to Kvl2 = 12(12). The assignments have been verified for states up to v2 = 5 by fitting with earlier room temperature absorption measurements of overtone and hot bands. The intensities are shown to be in qualitative agreement with the expected intensity pattern for such emission spectra. All the measurements for D13C15N have been combined in a single least-squares fit that includes approximately 2700 rovibrational lines which have a root-mean-square deviation on the order of 0.000 4 cm-1. The spectroscopic constants for the bending states v2 = 1, ellipsis,12 are reported, as well as for some combination states involving the other vibrational modes. We also give the spectroscopic constants of various states of DCN, D13C14N, and D12C15N which where obtained from room temperature absorption measurements. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.

Abstract
The nu1 and nu3 bands of D11BO and the nu1 band of D10BO were observed by using an infrared diode laser spectrometer. The DBO molecule was generated by an ac discharge in a mixture of BCl3, D2, O2, and He. As inferred previously, a strong Coriolis interaction was in fact found to take place between the nu1 and nu2 + nu3 states, and an analysis of the observed nu1 spectra, which explicitly took into account this Coriolis interaction, predicted the pure rotational transition frequencies of DBO in the nu1 state. Pure rotational lines were then detected by microwave spectroscopy, confirming the validity of the infrared assignment. In the microwave experiment DBO molecules were generated by a discharge in a mixture of B2D6 and O2. The three fundamental bands and a hot band of D11BO, as well as the nu1 and nu3 bands of D10BO, were subsequently recorded in emission with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. DBO molecules were generated by the reaction of D2 with HBO at temperatures above 800 degreesC in a ceramic tube furnace. All of the observed spectra were simultaneously subjected to a least-squares analysis to obtain molecular parameters in the ground, nu1, nu2, nu3, and nu2 + nu3 states. The results thus obtained improved the force field and molecular structure of the HBO/DBO molecules reported in a previous study (Y. Kawashima, Y. Endo, and E. Hirota, 1989, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 133, 116-127). Copyright 1998 Academic Press.

Abstract
We present sub-Doppler heterodyne frequency measurements on 10 rovibrational transitions of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) between 2894 and 2910 cm-1. The measurements were made using a CO overtone laser which had limited tuneability through the generation of microwave sidebands in a CdTe crystal. With this technique the laser frequencies were shifted to the desired OCS transition frequencies. The transition frequencies could be measured with uncertainties less than 30 kHz (Deltanu/nu = 3 x 10(-10)) by frequency offset-locking the CO overtone laser to combination frequencies of two saturation-stabilized CO2 laser standards. The measured transition frequencies of OCS were combined with previous sub-Doppler, Fourier transform, and microwave measurements to recalculate improved calibration tables for the 10(0)1-00(0)0, 11(1e)1-01(1e)0, and 11(1f)1-01(1f)0 bands. These tables are suitable for the calibration of infrared spectrometers in the 87 THz region (near 2900 cm-1). Copyright 1998 Academic Press.

Abstract
The intensities of the forbidden Q-branch transitions 02(2f)0-00(0)0, 12(2f)0-00(0)0, and 02(2f)1-00(0)0 for HCN have been measured. The intensities of the 02(2f)0-00(0)0 transitions of DCN, D13C15N, and H12C15N were also measured, as well as the 02(2f)1-00(0)0 transitions of H12C15N and H13C15N. These Q-branch transitions are forbidden even when the effects of l-type resonance are considered so they must get their intensity from some other Coriolis interactions. The much stronger P- and R-branch lines for the e levels of these same vibrational transitions were also measured and they are shown to get most of their intensity from l-type resonance. However, the same Coriolis resonance that gives intensity to the Q-branch transitions seems to affect the DeltaJ = ±1 transitions as shown by the difference in the intensities of the DeltaJ = +1 and DeltaJ = -1 transitions. Measurements of the intensity of the 03(3e)0-00(0)0 and 03(3f)0-00(0)0 transitions shows that they derive most, but perhaps not all, of their intensity from l-type resonance. An unsuccessful search for forbidden DeltaJ = 0, e-e transitions for the strong 10(0)0-00(0)0 band shows that there is no detectable mixing of the e and f levels. Copyright 1997 Academic Press.
