5 First retrievals: 13 CH 4 R(2) manifold  Why choose the R(2) manifold? Two lines only, well isolated at low P Low J lines are persistent at low T. No line mixing is expected between F and E symmetry species.  Selected 9 low-abundance spectra to allow self-broadening parameters to be fixed to literature values.  Retrievals for three T ranges Subset#1: 181 – 296 K Subset#2: 80 – 181 K Entire Set: 80 – 296 K  Retrievals at individual temperatures (296, 255, 225, 181, 129, and 79.5 K) to examine power-law T-dependence.

10 13 CH 4 R(2) Results Comparison  HITRAN values are based on measurements from 210 K to room temperature; we measured widths and shifts from 80 K to 296 K.  Widths are about 3x greater at 80 K than at 296 K. Extrapolation using HITRAN08 parameters results in 6 to 10% underestimate of the 80 K line width.  The frequency shift for the E line is smaller than that for the F line at room temperature, but the different temperature dependences result in a 2x greater E line shift at 80 K.  Titan atmospheric p, T are ~93 K and 1.5 bar at surface, ~71 K and 128 mbar at tropopause.

15 Summary and Future Work Measured and observed Line widths and pressure-induced shifts for 13 CH 4 /N 2 R(0) – R(3) manifolds Temperature dependences in 80 – 296 K range Non-linearity in the T-dependence of the widths Continuing analysis of other 13 CH 4 manifolds Results to date agree with other measurements of 13 CH 4 and 12 CH 4 broadened by N 2 or by air. Line mixing and speed-dependence are considered. Self-broadening and self-shifts must be better quantified over the 80 – 296 K range to obtain accurate results for N 2 -broadening and shifts.
