Fluorescence Lifetimes of the Ã<sup>1</sup>Π<sub>u</sub> State of C<sub>3</sub>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The fluorescence lifetimes of 115 vibrational levels of the Ã1Π(u) state of C3 have been measured under supersonic molecular beam conditions. Of these, ninety-one are Π(u) vibronic levels, for which the lifetimes lie in the range 190-700 ns. The lifetimes of those Π(u) levels where only the bending vibration is excited lie in the range 190-235 ns. There is very little variation with bending quantum number, and the lifetimes of the two orbital components of the 1Π(u) state are essentially the same. When ν1 and ν3 are excited, the lifetimes become longer and/or reach a maximum for levels with v1 + v3 ~ 4. Excitation of the bending vibration in addition to the stretching vibrations shortens the lifetime slightly. Several of the levels show double-exponential decays. Another 23 levels, of Σ(u)+ vibronic symmetry, mostly have lifetimes that are longer than 300 ns. Interaction with nearby "dark" electronic states, such as B1Σ(u)-, B'1Δ(u), C1Π(g), and b3Π(g), is proposed to account for the observed lifetime lengthening. A particularly clear instance of such an interaction is the long lifetime (914 ns) of a perturbing Σ(u)+ level at 30,181 cm(-1), which is confirmed as belonging to the perturbing B'1Δ(u) state. A single level of Δ(u) symmetry at 29,170 cm(-1), which perturbs one of the Π(u) levels, is shown to belong to the à state.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
