Overview schematic of CP-FTMW experiment

CP-FTMW Spectroscopy

We study rotational spectra of radicals of astronomical interest and explore the structures and intramolecular dynamics of cyclic molecules.

Low-Temperature Kinetics

We used pulsed molecular beam methods coupled with laser photolysis and spectroscopy to investigate radical chemistry at astrophysical temperatures.

VUV Photodissociation

We use multireference configuration interaction methods to calculate accurate photodissociation cross sections for transient diatomic molecules present in the interstellar medium, We also perform experimental measurements using synchrotron Fourier transform VUV spectroscopy.

Precision IR Spectroscopy of Radicals

We are developing cavity-enhanced Zeeman modulation techniques for performing ultra-precise saturation spectroscopy of radicals in the infrared.
