AbstractIn a novel modification of transient differential transmission spectroscopy, the first excited state S1 is reexcited via a second laser pulse towards a higher lying state Sn. The dynamics of the relaxation of this state Sn as well as the states created from Sn are revealed by a broad-band probe pulse.We find that the charge carrier generation efficiency from Sn is higher compared to S1. The push and probe durations below 20 fs enable the temporal resolution of the ultrafast relaxation of the Sn state and enables us to identify the two main contributions to enhanced charge generation from Sn, energy migration towards sites of high dissociation probability, and exciton dissociation during vibrational relaxation.

Abstract The paper addresses an electro-chemical method called wet oxidation potential technique for determining the susceptibility of coal to spontaneous combustion. Altogether 78 coal samples collected from thirteen different mining companies spreading over most of the Indian Coalfields have been used for this experimental investigation and 936 experiments have been carried out by varying different experimental conditions to standardize this method for wider application. Thus for a particular sample 12 experiments of wet oxidation potential method were carried out. The results of wet oxidation potential (WOP) method have been correlated with the intrinsic properties of coal by carrying out proximate, ultimate and petrographic analyses of the coal samples. Correlation studies have been carried out with Design Expert 7.0.0 software. Further, artificial neural network (ANN) analysis was performed to ensure best combination of experimental conditions to be used for obtaining optimum results in this method. All the above mentioned analysis clearly spelt out that the experimental conditions should be 0.2 N KMnO4 solution with 1 N KOH at 45°C to achieve optimum results for finding out the susceptibility of coal to spontaneous combustion. The results have been validated with Crossing Point Temperature (CPT) data which is widely used in Indian mining scenario.
