Electronic Spectroscopy of Free Base Porphyrins and Metalloporphyrins
Absorption and Fluorescence Spectroscopy of Tetraphenylporphyrin§ and Metallo-Tetraphenylporphyrin Introduction The word porphyrin is derived from the Greek porphura meaning purple, and all porphyrins are intensely coloured1. Porphyrins comprise an important class of molecules that serve nature in a variety of ways. The Metalloporphyrin ring is found in a variety of important biological system where it is the active component of the system or in some ways intimately connected with the activity of the system. Many of these porphyrins synthesized are the basic structure of biological porphyrins which are the active sites of numerous proteins, whose functions range from oxygen transfer and storage (hemoglobin and myoglobin) to electron transfer (cytochrome c, cytochrome oxidase) to energy conversion (chlorophyll). They also have been proven to be efficient sensitizers and catalyst in a number of chemical and photochemical processes especially photodynamic therapy (PDT). The diversity of their functions is due in part to the variety of metals that bind in the “pocket” of the porphyrin ring system (Fig. 1). Figure 1. Metallated Tetraphenylporphyrin Upon metalation the porphyrin ring system deprotonates, forming a dianionic ligand (Fig. 2). The metal ions behave as Lewis acids, accepting lone pairs of electrons ________________________________ § We all need to thank Jay Stephens for synthesizing the H2TPP 2 from the dianionic porphyrin ligand. Unlike most transition metal complexes, their color is due to absorption(s) within the porphyrin ligand involving the excitation of electrons from π to π* porphyrin ring orbitals. Figure 2. Synthesis of Zn(TPP) The electronic absorption spectrum of a typical porphyrin consists of a strong transition to the second excited state (S0 S2) at about 400 nm (the Soret or B band) and a weak transition to the first excited state (S0 S1) at about 550 nm (the Q band).

Infrared Astronomy Break: Sara and Rebeka
Astro 121, Spring 2014 Week 13 (April 24) Topic: Infrared astronomy Break: Sara and Rebeka Reading for this week: As we switch to looking at observing at wavelengths other than visible light, we’re moving beyond what Chromey covers. For this week, I’ve suggested reading from two sources. Glass gives a good introduction to the infrared and covers much of the practical material about filter systems, etc. McLean then fills in more details of practicalities of instrumentation for the infrared and how it is different from the optical. • Chromey briefly discusses the main broadband IR filter system in Section 10.4.3. • Glass, Handbook of Infrared Astronomy. In the same series as the book by Howell, this is a relatively new book with excellent coverage of infrared astronomy. Reading: Chapter 2 (The Infrared Sky); Chapter 3 (Photometry) through 3.2; and Chapter 6 (Instrumentation). You may also want to skim the rest of Chapter 3 and all of Chapter 4; they concentrate on applications of infrared photometry and spectroscopy, respectively. • McLean, Electronic Imaging in Astronomy (second edition). Ian McLean was one of the people most closely involved in the development and use of the early infrared arrays, and this is an area where this book stands out. Read Chapter 11, skipping pp. 400–404 (and in general reading the chapter for understanding of concepts rather than lots of details). One bit of physics that is worth reviewing for this week is the concept from thermodynamics that good absorbers are also good emitters, and correspondingly that the reflectivity R of some object is related to its emissivity ε by ε = 1 – R.

3.0 KLM Sensor Package
3.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE NOAA KLM SENSOR PACKAGE This section describes the characteristics of the NOAA KLM series instruments. The normal suite of instruments onboard the NOAA KLM series includes the following instruments: AVHRR/3, HIRS/3, AMSU-A and -B, SEM-2, DCS/2, SARSAT and sometimes SBUV/2. A detailed description of each instrument is provided in the respective subsections shown below. The instrument descriptions contain information such as spectral channel characteristics, system performance characteristics and additional information on the modules or subsystems that comprise the instrument. Table 1.2.1.3-1 provides a list of sensors flown onboard on each NOAA KLM spacecraft. 3.1 ADVANCED VERY HIGH RESOLUTION RADIOMETER/3 (AVHRR/3) 3.1.1 INSTRUMENT OPERATION This section describes the six channel Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR/3) developed by ITT-A/CD. The AVHRR/3 is used as the meteorological imaging system of the NOAA KLM spacecraft. The AVHRR/3 is an imaging system in which a small field of view (1.3 milliradians by 1.3 milliradians) is scanned across the earth from one horizon to the other by continuous 360 degree rotation of a flat scanning mirror. The orientation of the scan lines is perpendicular to the spacecraft orbit track and the speed of rotation of the scan mirror is selected so that adjacent scan lines are contiguous at the subsatellite (nadir) position. Complete strip maps of the earth from pole to pole are thus obtained as the spacecraft travels in orbit at an altitude of approximately 833 km (450 n.

Dual-Band Feed
The Development, Variations, and Applications ofan EHF Dual-Band Feed J.e. Lee • A compact, high-performance, EHF dual-band feed has been designed and developed. Subsequent improvements and modifications for a wide range ofantenna applications have been made. This article begins with three working examples ofexisting dual-band-antenna approaches, and discusses the dual-band feed that was developed for the antenna to be used on the scorrADM, a satellite communications terminal for mobile command posts. Excellent performance for the feed and antenna in both bands has been achieved. Other applications ofthe feed with appropriate modifications for dielectric-lens antennas, ADE (displaced-axis elliptical) antennas, and compact eleetronic-Iobing antennas are also d4cussed. These variations offeeds have been used in the FEP spot-beam antenna backup and a military-communications-satellite spot-beam antenna, in satellite-communications terminals on submarines, and in portable terminals (e.g., SCAMP and Advanced SCAMP). N THE MODERN WORLD, we have all encountered bands-hence the term dual band. The following sec many communications and radar terminals (1, 2] tions describe how we conceived and developed a dual I and have therefore glimpsed profiles of big and band feed, and how we subsequently improved and small antenna dishes. But we rarely have the chance to modified the feed for various antenna applications. see any details ofthe feeds ofthe antennas. In theory, we Background can design an antenna feed simply by applying the well known Maxwell equations with the appropriate bound Dual-Band Ratio ary conditions.

Herbig-Haro flows are signposts of recent major accretion and outflow episodes. We aim to determine the nature and properties of the little-known outflow source HH 250-IRS, which is embedded in the Aquila clouds. Methods. We have obtained adaptive optics-assisted L-band images with the NACO instrument on the Very Large Telescope (VLT), together with N- and Q-band imaging with VISIR also on the VLT. Using the SINFONI instrument on the VLT we carried out H- and K-band integral field spectroscopy of HH 250-IRS, complemented with spectra obtained with the SpeX instrument at the InfraRed Telescope Facility (IRTF) in the JHKL bands. Finally, the SubMillimeter Array (SMA) interferometer was used to study the circum- stellar environment of HH 250-IRS at 225 and 351 GHz with CO (2–1) and CO (3–2) maps and 0.9 mm and 1.3 mm continuum images. Results. The HH 250-IRS source is resolved into a binary with 000: 53 separation, corresponding to 120 AU at the adopted distance of 225 pc.

One key project aims is to develop up to date hardware and software technologies for the Ground Segment of the future Q/V band terabit Satcom infrastructure. In this paper an account of the developments related to the RF systems is given. Introduction The future High Throughput Satellites (HTS) paradigm has the objective to support the so-called “Terabit connectivity” thereby bringing to fore requirements for radical changes of technologies. A core element of envisioned future HTS systems is the use of “beyond Ka-band frequencies”. Q/V band frequencies (around 40 GHz for downlink and 50 GHz for uplink) are attracting immediate attention since they offer larger bandwidth availability for the feeder links and opportunities to release substantial bandwidth in the revenue generating Ka-band.
