Laser Spectroscopy of the ν1+3ν3 Absorption Band in 12C2H2(II): Self-Collisional Lineshift Measurements

We have recorded the spectrum of the ν1+3ν3 band in 12C2H2, around 12676 cm−1, using an autoscan Ti:Sa spectrometer. Pressure-dependent line positions were determined from an absorption spectrum recorded using a long White-type multiple-pass cell. An optoacoustic cell with a constant, low acetylene pressure allowed reference line position wavenumbers to be measured simultaneously. In different experiments, the multiple-pass cell was filled with increasing acetylene pressures. Self-collisional lineshifts were determined for more than 30 P and R lines in the band. Line wavenumbers for the stronger lines were separately measured from an optoacoustic spectrum calibrated using the results of a previous investigation in the literature [X. Zhan and L. Halonen, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 160, 464 (1993)] and corrected for their pressure dependence using the presently determined self-collisional lineshifts. Lineshift parameters that are significantly different from the overall behavior in the band are unexpectedly observe...
