Hamiltonian for rovibrational spectra of “hot” molecules

Resumo

A variational method based on the determination of rotation as a state with a constant angular momentum has been proposed for calculating rovibrational energy levels of a polyatomic molecule. By using this method, energy level values can be determined for any vibrational state with arbitrary values of vibrational quantum numbers. This makes it possible to calculate the rovibrational energy levels of the “hot” molecules.
