| Abstract |
We report the infrared photodissociation spectrum of tagged protonated valine in the range 1000–1900 cm–1, prepared in a cryogenic ion trap. Comparison of experimental results with calculated infrared spectra based on density functional theory shows that the hydroxyl group of the carboxylic acid functionality and the protonated amine group adopt a trans configuration. Nitrogen and methane molecules were used as messenger tags with optimal tagging temperatures of 30 K for N2 and 60 K for CH4. |

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
