Abstract
Lamb dips of twenty lines in the P, Q, and R branches of the ν1 + ν3 + ν41 vibrational band of 12C2H2, in the spectral window of 7125-7230 cm-1, have been measured using an upgraded comb-calibrated frequency-stabilized cavity ring-down spectrometer, designed for extensive sub-Doppler measurements. Due to the large number of carefully executed Lamb-dip experiments, and to the extrapolation of absolute frequencies to zero pressure in each case, the combined average uncertainty of the measured line-center positions is 15 kHz (5 × 10-7 cm-1) with a 2-σ confidence level. Selection of the twenty lines was based on the theory of spectroscopic networks (SN), ensuring that a large number of transitions, measured previously by precision-spectroscopy investigations, could be connected to the para and ortho principal components of the SN of 12C2H2. The assembled SN contains 331 highly precise transitions, 119 and 121 of which are in the ortho and para principal components, respectively, while the rest remain in floating components. The para- and ortho-12C2H2 energy-level lists, determined during the present study, contain 82 and 80 entries, respectively, with an accuracy similar to that of the lines. Based on the newly assembled lists of para- and ortho-12C2H2 empirical energy levels, a line list, called TenkHz, has been generated. The TenkHz line list contains 282 entries in the spectral range of 5898.97-7258.87 cm-1; thus far, only 149 of them have been measured directly via precision spectroscopy. The TenkHz line list includes 35 intense lines that are missing in the HITRAN2020 database.

Abstract
Coriolis coupling plays a crucial role in reactive scattering, but dynamics calculations including the complete Coriolis coupling significantly increase the difficulty of numerical evolution due to the corresponding expensive matrix processing. The coupled state approximation that completely ignores the off-diagonal Coriolis coupling saves computational cost significantly but its error is usually unacceptable. In this paper, an improved coupled state approximation inspired by recently published results [D. Yang, X. Hu, D. H. Zhang and D. Xie, J. Chem. Phys., 2018, 148, 084101.] of the inelastic scattering problem is extended to deal with the reactive scattering. The calculations using the time-dependent wave packet method reveal that the new method can accurately reproduce the rigorous results of the H + HD (j0 < 3) → D + H2 reaction and immensely improve the computational efficiency. Additionally, we extend the new method to the non-adiabatic Li(2p) + H2 (v0 = 0, j0 = 0, 1) → H + LiH reaction, showcasing its advantages of low computational cost and high accuracy.

Abstract
A pulse-shaping technique in the mid-infrared spectral range based on pulses with a super-Gaussian temporal profile is considered for laser control. We show a realistic and efficient path to the population of a dark rovibrational state in acetylene (C2H2). The laser-induced dynamics in C2H2 are simulated using fully experimental structural parameters. Indeed, the rotation-vibration energy structure, including anharmonicities, is defined by the global spectroscopic Hamiltonian for the ground electronic state of C2H2 built from the extensive high-resolution spectroscopy studies on the molecule, transition dipole moments from intensities, and the effects of the (inelastic) collisions that are parameterized from line broadenings using the relaxation matrix [A. Aerts, J. Vander Auwera, and N. Vaeck, J. Chem. Phys. 154, 144308 (2021)]. The approach, based on an effective Hamiltonian, outperforms today's ab initio computations both in terms of accuracy and computational cost for this class of molecules. With such accuracy, the Hamiltonian permits studying the inner mechanism of theoretical pulse shaping [A. Aerts et al., J. Chem. Phys. 156, 084302 (2022)] for laser quantum control. Here, the generated control pulse presents a number of interferences that take advantage of the control mechanism to populate the dark state. An experimental setup is proposed for in-laboratory investigation.

Abstract
Superfluid helium droplets provide an ideal environment for spectroscopic studies with rotational resolution. Nevertheless, the molecular rotation is hindered because the embedded molecules are surrounded by a non-superfluid component. The present work explores the dynamical role of this component in the hindered rotation of C2H2 within the C2H2-Ne complex. A HENDI experiment was built and near-infrared spectroscopy of C2H2-Ne and C2H2 was performed in the spectral region overlapping the ν3/ν2 + ν4 + ν5 Fermi-type resonance of C2H2. The comparison between measured and simulated spectra helped to address the above issue.

Abstract
Full-dimensional variational calculations are reported for the isomerising disilyne molecule, Si2H2. Large-scale calculations using coordinates based on orthogonal satellite vectors permitted the computation of excited vibrational state energies and wavefunctions for all four isomeric forms: dibridged Si(H2)Si, monobridged Si(H)SiH, disilavinylidene H2SiSi, and trans-bent HSiSiH. Energies and wavefunctions have been determined for the lowest 2400 totally symmetric vibrational states; this set includes highly excited states above all three chemically relevant isomerisation barriers--up to about 8300 cm(-1) above the (dibridged) ground state. States strongly localised in the dibridged, monobridged, and disilavinylidene regions of the potential energy surface have been found as well as many partially or fully delocalised states. For the trans-bent form, only partially localised states have been identified. Comparisons are made with similar literature calculations on the isovalent acetylene-vinylidene system HCCH/H2CC.

Abstract
The third CH stretching vibration overtone (4ν(CH)) of the acetylene molecule has been a prototype for intra-molecular dynamics studies. Using a sensitive cavity ring-down spectrometer calibrated with precise atomic transitions, the absolute line frequencies of 50 lines of this band have been determined with sub-MHz accuracy, or relatively 2 × 10(-9). The accuracy is also confirmed by the combination differences between the transitions sharing the same upper level. The improved accuracy, two orders of magnitude better than previous studies, allows us to reveal finer ro-vibrational couplings. Fitting of the rotational energies indicates that the J-dependent interactions take place after J > 7. The precise line positions present useful confinements to the models of the intra-molecular interactions of the acetylene molecule.

Abstract
We report the first experimental observation of homonuclear propensity in collisional relaxation of a polyatomic molecule. A pump-probe stimulated Raman setup is used to pump population to a single rotational level of the v(2) = 1 vibrationally excited state in (13)C(12)CD(2) and then monitor the redistribution of the rotational population that has taken place after a fixed delay. The Q-branch of the 2ν(2)-ν(2) band shows a pattern of intensity alternation between the even and the odd rotational components, with the greater intensities always corresponding to the rotational levels with the same parity as the one where all the population was initially deposited. The effect can be explained by the existence of a propensity rule that favors collisional relaxation between rovibrational levels of the same parity.

Abstract
A new technique for the direct determination of state-to-state rotational energy transfer rate constants in the gas phase is presented. It is based on two sequential stimulated Raman processes: the first one prepares the sample in a single rotational state of an excited vibrational level, and the second one, using the high resolution quasi-continuous stimulated Raman-loss technique, monitors the transfer of population to other rotational states of the same vibrational level as a function of the delay between the pump and the probe stages. The technique is applied to the odd-J rotational states of v(2)=1 acetylene at 155 K. The experimental layout, data acquisition, retrieval procedures, and numerical treatment are described. The quantity and quality of the data are high enough to allow a direct determination of the state-to-state rate constant matrix from a fit of the experimental data, with the only conditions of detailed balance and of a closed number of states. The matrix obtained from this direct fit is also compared with those obtained using some common fitting and scaling laws.

Abstract
Following the initial report of the detection of fundamental transitions of all nine vibrational modes of the vinyl radical [Letendre , L. ; Liu , D.-K. ; Pibel , C. D. ; Halpern , J. B. ; Dai , H.-L. J. Chem. Phys. 2000 , 112 , 9209] by time-resolved IR emission spectroscopy, we have re-examined the assignments of the vibrational modes through isotope substitution. Precursor molecules vinyl chloride-d3, vinyl bromide-d3, and 1,3-butadiene-d6 are used for generating vibrationally excited vinyl-d3 through 193 nm photolysis. The nondeuterated versions of these molecules along with vinyl iodide and methyl vinyl ketone are used as precursors for the production of vinyl-h3. IR emission following the 193 nm photolysis laser pulse is recorded with nanosecond time and approximately 8 cm(-1) frequency resolution. A room-temperature acetylene gas cell is used as a filter to remove the fundamental transitions of acetylene, a photolysis product, in order to reduce the complexity of the emission spectra. Two-dimensional cross-spectra correlation analysis is used to identify the emission bands from the same emitting species and improve the S/N of the emission spectra. Isotope substitution allows the identification of several low-frequency vibrational modes. For C2H3, the assigned modes are the nu4 (CC stretch) at 1595, nu5 (CH2 symmetric bend) at 1401, nu6 (CH2 asymmetric + alpha-CH bend) at 1074, nu8 (CH2 + alpha-CH symmetric out-of-plane (oop) bend) at 944, and nu9 (CH2 + alpha-CH asymmetric oop bend) at 897 cm(-1). For C2D3, the modes are the nu5 (CD2 symmetric bend) at 1060, nu6 (CD2 asymmetric + alpha-CD bend) at 820, and nu8 (CD2 + alpha-CD symmetric oop bend) at 728 cm(-1).
