Intensity and linewidth measurements in the 13.7-micron fundamental bands of (C-12)2H2 and (C-12)(C-13)H2 at planetary atmospheric temperatures

The absolute intensities and collision-broadened half-widths of several lines in the P-,Q-, and R-branches of the nu5-fundamental band of (C-12)2H2 have been measured at various temperatures between 147 and 295 K employing the Doppler-limited spectral resolution (about 10 exp -4/cm) of a tunable diode laser spectrometer. The absolute intensities of R(5), R(7), R(9), and R(20) in the same fundamental belonging to (C-12)(C-13)H2 have also been measured at 294 K. The temperature dependence of the collision-broadened half-width has been determined for some of the lines broadened by planetary atmospheric gases, namely, He, Ar, H2, and N2. Four self-broadened linewidths of (C-12)2H2, as well as three H2-broadened linewidths and a self-broadened half-width of (C-12)(C-13)H2, have also been retrieved from the measurements.
