Methane dimer rovibrational states and Raman transition moments
arXiv:2312.14099 · doi:10.1039/D3CP06222H
Abstract
Benchmark-quality rovibrational data are reported for the methane dimer from variational nuclear motion computations using an ab initio intermolecular potential energy surface reported by [M. P. Metz et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2019, 21, 13504-13525]. A simple polarizability model is used to compute Raman transition moments that may be relevant for future direct observation of the intermolecular dynamics. Non-negligible transition moments arise in this symmetric top system due to strong rovibrational couplings.
