Bifurcation in Rotational Spectra of Nonlinear Ab2 Molecules
نویسنده
چکیده
A classical microscopic theory of rovibrational motion at high angular momenta in symmetrical non-linear molecules AB2 is derived within the framework of small oscillations near the stationary states of a rotating molecule. The full-dimensional analysis including stretching vibrations has confirmed the existence of the bifurcation predicted previously by means of the rigid-bender model [see B.I. Zhilinskii and I.M. Pavlichenkov, Opt. Spectrosk. (USSR) 64, 413–414 (1988)]. The formation of fourfold energy clusters resulting from the bifurcation has been experimentally verified for H2Se and it has been demonstrated in fully-dimensional quantum mechanical calculations carried out with the MORBID computer program. We show in the present work that apart from the level clustering, the bifurcation produces physically important effects including molecular symmetry-breaking and a transition from the normal mode to the local mode limit for the stretching vibrations due to rovibrational interaction. The application of the present theory with realistic molecular potentials to the H2Te, H2Se and H2S hydrides results in predictions of the bifurcation points very close to those calculated previously. However for the lighter H2Omolecule we find that the bifurcation occurs at higher values of the total angular momentum than obtained in previous estimations. The present work shows it to be very unlikely that the bifurcation in H2O will lead to clustering of energy levels. This result is in agreement with recent variational calculations.

Relative equilibria of molecules are classical trajectories corresponding to steady rotations about stationary axes during which the shape of the molecule does not change. They can be used to explain and predict features of quantum spectra at high values of the total angular momentum J in much the same way that absolute equilibria are used at low J. This paper gives a classi® cation of the symm...

A method is proposed and tested for the analysis of ∆I = 2 staggering observed in nuclear rotational bands. We examine six super-and hyper-deformed bands, among which that of 149 Gd and possibly of 147 Gd seem to exhibit real staggering. However, we emphasize that the presence of staggering may not necessarily imply the occurrence of bifurcation. It is also shown that a similar staggering seen ...
