چکیده

Analysis of the hot H2 16O spectrum, presented by Polyansky et al. (1996, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 176, 305-315), is extended to higher vibrational states. Three hundred thirty mainly strong lines are assigned to pure rotational transitions in the (100), (001), and (020) vibrational states. These lines, which involve significantly higher rotational energy levels than were known previously, are assigned using high-accuracy variational calculations. Transitions in (020) are assigned up to Ka = 18, compared with the maximum Ka of 10 known previously. Crossings of vibration-rotation energy levels result in the observation of extra intensity-stealing transitions. In particular, this leads to the assignment of (020)-(100) and (100)-(020) rotational difference band transitions in addition to the conventional pure rotational lines in (020) and (100) states. These extra lines increase the number of transitions and they are likely to complicate the pure rotational water spectrum in higher excited vibrational states to an even greater extent. A few lines from our previous work on the pure rotational spectrum of hot water in the (000) and (010) vibrational states are also reassigned and some further assignments are made.

Hot Bands of Water up to 6nu2-5nu2 in the 933-2500 cm-1 Region.

Emission spectra have been recorded for hot water at temperatures up to 1550 degreesC. Separate spectra have been recorded in the 800-1900 and 1800-2500 cm-1 range. Assignments are made using a linelist generated from high accuracy, variational nuclear motion calculations, and energy differences. The spectra contain many hot bending transitions of the form (0n0)-(0n-10), where states up to n = ...

The Five First Vibrational States of the Water Molecule: Rotational Energy and Line In- Tensity Analyses

The first part of this paper deals with a global analysis of the rotational levels of water belonging to the (000), (010), (100), (001), and (020) states, for which experimental rotational energies have been obtained using high-temperature flame spectra. The theoretical treatment used is a modified version of the bending-rotation Hamiltonian formalism in which the strong Fermi-type and Coriolis...

High-Temperature Rotational Transitions of Water in Sunspot and Laboratory Spectra

Assignments are presented for spectra of hot water obtained in absorption in sunspots (T approximately 3000&deg;C and 750 </= nu; </= 1010 cm-1) and in emission in the laboratory (T approximately 1550&deg;C and 370 </= nu; </= 930 cm-1). These assignments are made using variational nuclear motion calculations based on a high-level ab initio electronic surface, with allowance for both adiabatic ...

Rotational l-type resonance in BeH2, BeD2, and MgH2.

In two previous papers on the infrared emission spectra of gaseous BeH2, BeD2, and MgH2 molecules, we reported rotational analyses of the antisymmetric stretching fundamental band and several hot bands. A customary effective rotational energy level expression, which is a power series in J J+1 with B v , D v , and H v constants, was used for most of the observed vibrational levels. For all the v...

K-dependent predissociation dynamics of CS2 in the 210-216 nm region.

The dependence of CS2 predissociation upon rotational quantum number K at vibrational levels below the barrier to linearity of the 1B2(1Sigmau+) state has been investigated in detail with laser spectroscopy, by using a heated supersonic source to increase the intensities of hot band transitions. Predissociation lifetimes were determined from rotational contour simulations of 13 vibronic bands i...
