Infrared Spectra and Vapor Pressures of Crystalline C2N2, with Comparisons to Crystalline HCN
In a continuation of our work on nitriles, we have examined cyanogen (C _2 N _2 ) as a crystalline solid, comparing the results to our recent work on crystalline hydrogen cyanide (HCN).

Gas-phase Ortho-to-para Ratio of Formaldehyde Formed at Low Temperatures in Laboratory Ices
The ortho-to-para ratio (OPR) of formaldehyde (H _2 CO) has been used as a probe to estimate the formation temperature of molecules in interstellar, circumstellar, and cometary environments, relying on the assumption that nuclear spin conversion is ...
