Revisiting N${}_2$-N${}_2$ collisional linewidth models for S-branch rotational Raman scattering

Abstract

This paper presents an evaluation of two commonly accepted Raman linewidth models typically used to fit CARS model parameters to data; the Modified Exponential Gap (MEG) and the Energy Corrected Sudden (ECS) models. The adjustable parameters in each model have been fit to published experimental linewidths, and comparisons are made to the various publications that have already provided similar adjustable constants. The approaches presented in the literature are discussed as are differences with the findings presented here.
