SEMICLASSICAL ROTATION-VIBRATION ENERGIES FOR A TRIATOMIC MOLECULE: IhO
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report primitive semiclassical rotation-vibrational energy levels for a triatomic molecule, H20, with inclusion of all three vibrational degrees of freedom. Both the Lai-Hagstrom and Hoy-Bunker potential surfaces are used. Vibrational and rotational actions are calculated usinn the fast Fourier transform Sorbie-Handy method. Overall, encouraging agreement with the quantum variational results of Chen, Maessen, and Wolfsberg is found.

Dimensional perturbation theory for vibration-rotation spectra of linear triatomic molecules
A very efficient large-order perturbation theory is formulated for the nuclear motion of a linear triatomic molecule. To demonstrate the method, all of the experimentally observed rotational energies, with values of J almost up to 100, for the ground and first excited vibrational states of CO2 and for the ground vibrational states of N2O and of OCS are calculated. All coupling between vibration...
متن کاملA General Treatment of Vibration-Rotation Coordinates for Triatomic Molecules
An exact, within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, body-fixed Hamiltonian for the nuclear motions of a triatomic system is presented. This Hamiltonian is expressed in terms of two arbitrarily defined internal distances and the angle between them. The body-fixed axis system is related to these coordinates in a general fashion. Problems with singularities and the domain of the Hamiltonian are d...
متن کاملFrustrated double ionization in two-electron triatomic molecules
Using a semiclassical model, we investigate frustrated double ionization (FDI) in D3+, a two-electron triatomic molecule, when driven by an intense, linearly polarized, near-infrared (800 nm) laser field. We compute the kinetic energy release of the nuclei and find a good agreement between experiment and our model. We explore the two pathways of FDI and show that, with increasing field strength...
متن کاملThe Potential Energy Surface of Hydrogen Sulfide
We report here a refinement of the potential energy surface for the electronic ground state of the H2S molecule in a least-squares fit to experimental spectroscopic data. The calculations are carried out by combining an exact kinetic energy (EKE) approach to the calculation of the rotation–vibration energies of a triatomic molecule with the MORBID approach, which employs an approximate kinetic ...
متن کاملTriangular D 3 h Symmetry in the Rotation - Vibration Spectrum of 12 C
Our recent measurements of new states in C including the second 2 at 10 MeV and the high spin 5 state at 22.4 MeV allow us to study the Rotation-Vibration spectrum of C from which evidence for a new (D3h) geometrical symmetry emerges. The data fit very well to the predicted (ground state) rotational band of an oblate equilateral triangular spinning top with a D3h symmetry characterized by the s...
