1 Methyl Bromide : Spectroscopic line parameters in the 7- and 10-μm region D. Jacquemart 1, N. Lacome 1, F. Kwabia-Tchana 1, I. Kleiner 2 1 Laboratoire de Dynamique, Interactions et Réactivité; Université Pierre et Marie Curie- Paris6, CNRS, UMR 7075, France 2 Laboratoire Inter-Universitaire des Systèmes Atmosphériques; Universités Paris 12 et Paris 7, CNRS, UMR 7583, FRANCE

2 → Atmospheric trace gas (≈ 10 pptv) of both natural and anthropogenic origins (oceanic emission, biomass burning, leaded gasoline, agricultural pesticide …) → Deadly toxic gas for human and animal life when exposed to high concentration → Major contributor to stratospheric bromine which participates to ozone destruction Methyl Bromide (CH 3 Br)

3 → Previous works concern mainly line positions analysis (see Graner JMS 1981;90:394-438) → Two recent works on line positions and intensities in the 7-μm spectral region Spectroscopic line parameters in literature (Kwabia Tchana et al. JMS 2004;228:441-52 ; Kwabia Tchana et al. JMS 2006;235:132-43) → No spectroscopic data is available in atmospheric database such as HITRAN or GEISA → No work on broadening coefficients Presented in the second part of this talk

4 CH 3 Br in our atmosphere → Not yet detected in atmospheric spectra → Compare to CH 3 Cl, the quantity in our atmosphere is 10 time less → Compare to Cl, Br radicals are 10 time more efficient for the ozone destruction Complete line lists are necessary to detect CH 3 Br

9 Preliminary work → Phase correction for each spectrum (Mertz method) → Determination of an average effective iris radius → Wavenumber calibration using NH 3 transitions and HITRAN2004 wavenumbers as etalon = 1.789(40)×10 –6 scattering (1SD) of 0.04×10 –3 cm –1 at 1000 cm –1

10 Line parameters measurement for transitions having J and K ranging from 0 to 55 and from 0 to 9 → Use of a multispectrum fitting procedure (Eur Phys J D 2001;14:55-69.) Position, intensity and broadening coefficients of a same line are constrained to be the same during the simultaneous fit of the six spectra. Use of a Voigt profile. For broadening coefficients we assumed that: → 1200 transitions fitted between 880 and 1050 cm  1 of both CH 3 79 Br and CH 3 81 Br

11 Two models have been used to analyze measured line intensities → Treatment using the eigenvectors as a linear combination of the zero order basis wavefunction (ℓ-type interactions) (Tarrago G, Delaveau M. Triad v n (A 1 ), v t (E), v t’ (E) in C 3v Molecules: Energy and Intensity Formulation (Computer Programs). J Mol Spectrosc 1986;119:418-25 ) → Classical Herman Wallis treatment with |v,ℓ,J,K> as eigenvectors (Watson JKG. Quadratic Herman-Wallis Factors for Symmetric- and Asymmetric- Top Molecules. J Mol Spectrosc 1992;153:211-24.)

19 Empirical model has been used to compute measured self and N 2 widths → For C 3v molecules the J-and K-dependences of the widths have already been observed for: NH 3 (Nemtchinov V, Sung, K, Varanasi P. Measurements of line intensities and half-widths in the 10-μm bands of 14 NH 3. JQSRT 2004;83:243-65.) CH 3 D ( Predoi-Cross A, Hambrook K, Brawley-Tremblay S, Bouanich JP, Malathy Devi V, Smith MAH.

29 Conclusion for the 10 μm region based on the fit of 1200 measurements For positions: The average discrepancy obs-calc is equal to (0.001 ± 0.114)×10 -3 cm -1, The accuracy is estimated to be better than 0.2×10 -3 cm -1. For intensities: The average discrepancy obs-calc is equal to 0.2 ± 3.8 %, The rotational dependence is reproduced with accuracy around 5 %. For widths: The average discrepancy %self is equal to 0.8 ± 6.4 %, The average discrepancy % N 2 is equal to –0.3 ± 3.3 %. The J and K dependence of the measurement is reproduced with accuracy better than 10 % for the self-broadening coefficients, and around 5 % for the N 2 -broadening coefficients. → List of these parameters will be proposed to atmospheric databases

38 Conclusion for the 7 μm region For positions: (based on the fit of 7500 line positions) The average discrepancy obs-calc is equal to (0.002 ± 0.784)×10 -3 cm -1, The accuracy is estimated to be better than 1×10 -3 cm -1. For intensities: (based on the fit of 300 line intensities) The average discrepancy obs-calc is equal to 0.04 ± 3.9 %, The rotational dependence is reproduced with accuracy around 5 %. For widths: New spectra have been recorded with CH 3 Br and N 2, and will be analyzed to observe or not a vibrational dependence for broadening coefficients. At the present time we suggested that widths obtained in the 10 μm region could be applied to the 7 μm region. → List at 7 μm will be proposed to atmospheric databases
