Multi-resonance effects within a single chirp in broadband rotational spectroscopy: The rapid adiabatic passage regime for benzonitrile
TL;DR: In this paper, stepwise multi-resonance excitations in benzonitrile arising from a single 1μs broadband 2.3 GHz microwave chirp were observed with a new chirped-pulse broadband rotational spectrometer, COMPACT.
