Sir John Isaac Thornycroft
H.M.S. Daring, the first high speed torpedo boat destroyer (185 ft.), built in 1893 by Sir John Thornycroft.
Failure of initial propeller led to discovery and naming of “cavitation”, which is also the source of sonochemistry & sonoluminescence.

Every spectroscopic technique has an intrinsic timescale,shorten than which dynamic changes cannot be resolved.
Uncertainty Principle limits temporal resolution:

Interaction of Light and Molecules
Temporal resolution is determined BOTHby the wavelength of the technique, andby the separation energy between the peaks.

States vs. Orbitals
Let us now begin to look at the interaction of light with molecules (i.e., the origins of “spectroscopy”).
How does one state (e.g., ground) get perturbed into another state (e.g., excited)

Expressing States: Dirac Notation
Any state may be represented as a vector of quantum numbers.
Under Dirac notation, we denote a vector using a “ket”: |>
c |> is another vector where c is an operator
|a> + |b> is also some other vector
|> - |> is the null vector, |0> or just 0.
(Aside: Hilbert space = a vector space containingall possible states of a system
an operator, c, simple takes one vector into another vector in that space, i.e., taking one state to another state. )

Dirac Notation
Within the context of quantum mechanics, we can
consider the Dirac Inner Product, <X|A>, to mean
“the probability amplitude that state A becomes/arrives-at/is-converted-to state X.”(The inner product is read right to left.)
<X|A> is equivalent to XA d integrated over all space.
If we ask, “what is the probability of an electron at A being scattered by atom i to location B” then we write
<B|i>S<i|A> where S is the scattering function/operator.
and BSi A d = <B|Si|A>

Dirac Notation
Within the context of electronic structure,
inter-electron repulsion is so commonly wanted,
that you will also see a special “diracish” notation
to represent the Coulombic repulsion operator,
1/r, where r is the inter-electron distance operator:
( j|i ) = <j|r-1|i> = j (1/rij) i d = repulsion between
electrons j and i

Interaction of Light and Molecules
ICBST: The interaction of light with matter comes
overwhelmingly from interaction of an electric dipole
(in the molecule) with the electric field component of light.
i.e., H’ is the electric dipole operator
Interactions between light and either molecular quadrupole moments
or magnetic dipoles are pretty much negligible.

Summary: During the transition, the dipole moment must changefrom the GS to the XS.
More later about the group theory consequences of this.

Ψgs = ground state wavefunction

Absorption Selection Rule vs. Spin
Consider the wavefunction that includes spin.To a first approximation, the dipole moment operator doesn’t interact
with spin (when it does, we call it spin-orbit coupling).
So, we can separate spin from the rest of the wavefunction:
Ψ = Ψspin Ψorbital and
M(Ψspin Ψorbital) = Ψspin M(Ψorbital)
So we now have to worry, does Ψspin ES Ψspin GS = 0 integrated over all space.
During the transition, the dipole moment must changefrom the GS to the XS.
What's the role of spin in this?

Spin Selection Rule
This is the strictest of electronic selection rules (more later) (at least before 2nd row TMs).
Assumes (1) spin can be separated from orbital functions, and(2) dipole operator does notaffect spin.
(l = GS, m = XS)

For the Total Spin of an atom or molecule the rules apply:
1. Doubly occupied orbitals do NOT contribute to the total Spin
2. Singly occupied orbitals can be occupied with either spin-up or spin-down e-
3. Unpaired e- can be coupled parallel or antiparallel, giving a total spin S
4. For a state with total spin S there are 2S+1 “components” with M = S,S-1,...,-S. Hence terms singlet, doublet, triplet, …
5. The MS quantum number is always the sum of all individual ms QNs.
