2 Overview Why are we interested in PH 3 pentad? Previous studies and energy levels Resonances & interactions in the pentad Experimental conditions & sample spectra Preliminary results on Position and Intensity fits Line shapes (widths, shifts, line mixing & speed dependence) widths vs. J and K Empirical fits for widths Comparison of widths in 1 & 3 to 2 & 4 Conclusions and acknowledgments

3 Phosphine is a molecule of astrophysical and astronomical interest. It has been observed on both the Jupiter and Saturn It is a symmetric top molecule with a pyramidal structure; has 4 IR fundamental vibrational bands, 1, 2, 3 and 4. The most prominent absorption features in the pentad are the two strong overlapping bands 1 and 3 located at 2321.131 and 2326.877 cm -1. The other 3 bands in the pentad (2 2, 2 + 4, and 2 4 ) are weak and are located on the lower wavenumber side. The complicated rotational structures of the 1 and 3 give rise to strong Coriolis-type interaction between them. Other types of anharmonic interactions also occur among the various bands. The Coriolis interaction gives rise to many “forbidden” transitions and also results in large A+A- splittings.

4 The pentad region is revisited; because Accurate knowledge of line parameters for PH 3 is important for Cassini/VIMS exploration of Saturn and for correct interpretation of Jovian observations by JUNO and ESA′s newly-selected mission, JUICE. A puzzling inconsistency in the mixing ratio derivations of PH 3 with altitude from Cassini VIMS and Cassini CIRS experiments were noticed by astronomers and attributed it to the poor knowledge of PH 3 spectroscopy in the pentad. Line parameters (e.g. positions and intensities) for all five bands in the 1930- 2440 cm -1 are measured to improve the spectroscopic database for remote sensing of the giant planets. Analysis of high resolution, high S/N spectra of high purity PH 3 recorded with the Bruker FTS at PNNL and the McMath-Pierce FTS on Kitt Peak are made. The strong 1 and 3 bands are recorded using very short absorption path cells (~ 1.05 cm). A brief survey of earlier studies is outlined next

16 CONCLUSIONS o Over 4000 line positions and intensities are measured. o The rotational quantum numbers of measured lines go as high as J″=16 and K″=15 in the 1 and 3 bands. o The measured positions and intensities are modeled using new theoretical calculations in the pentad. The analyses are in progress. o More than 800 Lorentz self-broadened widths and self-induced pressure shift coefficients are measured in several bands. o Off-diagonal relaxation matrix elements are determined for a number of A+A- transitions with K″= 3, 6, and 9. o Speed dependence parameters are also retrieved for several transitions.
