Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Les complexes de van der Waals sont des entités constituées de différentes molécules liées par des interactions faibles (~kJ/mol). Ces agrégats présentent une réactivité particulière et jouent un rôle essentiel dans les phénomènes de solvatation et nucléation. Des moyens expérimentaux et théoriques pour étudier les complexes de van der Waals et en particulier ceux contenant de l’acétylène ont donc été développés dans ce travail. Nous avons utilisé et amélioré un montage expérimental appelé FANTASIO+ (Fourier trANsform, Tunable diode and quadrupole mAss spectrometers interfaced to a Supersonic expansIOn). Ce montage, composé d’un jet supersonique et d’un spectromètre à temps de déclin permet la production et la détection de ce genre de complexes. Le jet supersonique consiste en une détente adiabatique d’un gaz et assure par refroidissement à quelques Kelvins la production de complexes. La spectrométrie à temps de déclin mesure l’absorption d’un laser infra-rouge par ces molécules cibles assurant ainsi leur détection. Une diode laser nous a permis d’exciter deux fois l’étirement CH de l’acétylène. Nous avons pu détecter et analyser le spectre de vibration-rotation des complexes suivants :C2H2-Ne, C2H2-Ar, C2H2-Kr, C2H2-CO2, C2H2-N2O, et C2H2-C2H2. La molécule C2H2-CO2 et des isotopologues de C2H2-C2H2 ont également été étudiés à plus basse énergie durant un séjour à Calgary au Canada. Nos études ont démontré que ces complexes restaient liés à une énergie pouvant aller jusqu’à 130 fois l’énergie d’interaction entre les deux monomères. L’obtention de données à haute résolution spectrale permet également d’obtenir des données de références pour la validation de modèles théoriques et la planétologie. En particulier, la première détection de C2H2-Kr permettra peut-être une future observation de cet agrégat dans des atmosphères planétaires comme par exemple Titan. Pour avoir une approche globale de ces systèmes nous nous sommes tournés vers les outils de la chimie quantique pour caractériser l’interaction entre les entités du complexe. Des tests méthodologiques approfondis nous ont permis d’évaluer avec exactitude les surfaces d’énergie potentielle intermoléculaire des complexes contenant une molécule d’acétylène et un atome de krypton ou de xénon. van der Waals complexes are molecular systems in which the units or molecules are held together by weak interactions (~kJ/mol). These complexes present a peculiar reactivity and play a critical role in solvation and nucleation. Theoretical and experimental means were developed in this work to study such systems and in particular, complexes containing acetylene. In the context of this work the FANTASIO+ (Fourier trANsform, Tunable diode and quadrupole mAss spectrometers interfaced to a Supersonic expansIOn) experimental set-up was used and improved. This set-up, composed of a supersonic expansion and a cavity ring-down spectrometer, provides a way to produce and detect these complexes. The supersonic expansion is an adiabatic expansion which produces the complexes by cooling of the gas to few Kelvin. The CRDS set-up detect those complexes by infra-red laser absorption. Using laser diode to doubly excite the CH stretch of acetylene, one then succeeded to observe and analyze the ro-vibrational spectra of the following complexes: C2H2-Ne, C2H2-Ar, C2H2-Kr, C2H2-CO2, C2H2-N2O, et C2H2-C2H2. The C2H2-CO2 and isotopologues of C2H2-C2H2 were also studied at lower energy during a three months stay in Calgary, Canada. Our studies demonstrated that complexes stayed bound even at an energy 130 times higher than the energy holding the entities together. The high resolution data obtained during this work is also useful to validate theoretical models and planetology. The first detection of the C2H2-Kr complex, in particular, could allow its future detection in other atmospheres, i.e. on Titan. To have a global approach to these systems, the quantum chemistry tools were used to characterize the interaction between the partners of the complexes. Numerous methodological tests allowed us to accurately evaluate the intermolecular potential energy surfaces of the complexes containing an acetylene molecule and a krypton or a xenon atom.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
