Diffusion of one rare gas into an equimolar mixture of two other rare gases has been followed using krypton-85 or xenon-133 tracer. The systems behave as pseudo-binary diffusion systems. A kinetic theory equation, valid for diffusion of a trace in a multicomponent mixture, is not a good approximation for diffusion of a major component.

Collision-induced microwave absorption has been observed at 2.3 cm−1 for the rare gas mixtures Ne–Kr, Ar–Kr, Ar–Xe, and Kr–Xe. The absorption coefficient has been measured at room temperature for density products up to 8000 amagat2 and for various density ratios. These results have been used in conjunction with those of the infrared region to determine more accurately the zeroth moment for each of the spectra and hence have allowed improved values for the induced dipole moment parameters for the exponential model. Upper limits to the absorption in He–Xe and He–Ar mixtures in the microwave region have also been established.

AbstractTo measure the 85Kr and 133Xe content in the atmosphere approximately 60 m3 of dried and CO2-removed air are pumped through activated carbon (pressure 300 torr, temperature 77 K) during one week. When sampling time is over, the carbon is heated to 570 K. This gives a gas sample of 41 with more than 90% of the atmospherical krypton and xenon within two hours. With a further step of enrichment, the volume of sample is reduced to 100 ml. The final separation and purification of the rare gases from O2, N2, CO and CO2 is made chromatographically. First the xenon is sepa­rated in a column filled with molecular sieve (5A) at 390 K, after that the krypton is separated in a column with activated charcoal at room temperature with methane as a "carrier gas" and is simultaneously transported to a proportional counter (230 ml). In the first half-year of 1977 the activity levels of 85Kr and 133Xe ran to 17.7 respectively 0.19 pCi/m3 air. The variations of the rare gas-activities are indeed rather high. The xenon-activities are not correlated with the krypton-activities. In a preliminary discussion we try to find reasons for these variations.

Ozone yields have been measured from the Febetron irradiation of mixtures containing 1–50 mol% oxygen and each of the five rare gases. The maximum values of G(O3) calculated using the energy absorbed only in the rare gas are obtained with the addition of less than 10% oxygen and are for: He, 16; Ne, 14; Ar, 11; Kr, 10; Xe, 12; each with an uncertainty of less than ±10%. On the addition of 0.2 mol% SF6 these yields are reduced to 6,5,1,2, and 2.5 respectively.These values are compared with those derived from ion and excited state yields and the contributions of subexcitation electrons.

The collision-induced spectra of mixtures of ethane and each of the rare gases He, Ar, Kr, and Xe in the 40–360 cm−1 region have been obtained using a Michelson Fourier transform spectrometer. In addition, the temperature dependence of the absorption in ethane and ethane–xenon mixtures is reported. All results have been analyzed according to the theory for quadrupole induced rotation–translation absorption. The absolute value of the quadrupole moment of ethane is estimated to be less than 1.0 B and most likely less than 0.5 B. Various speculations are made concerning the induction mechanisms (other than quadrupolar) for each of the mixtures.

In the two chondrites Kapoeta and Abee outstanding rare gas content have been found. From the amount and isotopic composition it is concluded that primordial rare gases have been included in these meteorites. Kapoeta contains all rare gases in excess, while Abee has mainly the heavier rare gases as primordial component. The Ne20/Ne22—and A36/A38—ratios show large deviations from atmospheric Neon and Argon. No such large deviations could be found for Krypton and Xenon.

Abstract The influence of the surroundings on the linear dipole polarizability α and second hyperpo-larizability γ is discussed in terms of the density ϱM of isotropically distributed matter as well as the density ϱp of thermal black-body radiation photons, α and γ of the rare gas atoms are studied as examples. At standard conditions, both effects are of comparable size for the rare gases. Possible consequences for ion-molecule reaction rate constants in astronomical environments are suggested.

Measurements of the σ10 cross section for a beam of Ar+ ions of energies between 30 and 120 keV passing through a thin target of the rare gases show good agreement with the few previous measurements in this energy region.
