Interference effects in the infrared spectrum of HD



George TABISZ

University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada



Résumé : The hydrogen isotopomer HD is an unique laboratory for the study of quantum in Unlike H2, it has a permanent electric dipole which gives rise to an allowed i H2, it exhibits a prominent collision-induced spectrum. Interference between t for these transitions produces unusual intensity and, sometimes startling, lin propagation and inelastic collisions play crucial roles in the mechanism respo phenomenon. Both experimental and theoretical aspects of its study will be dis insights about anisotropic interaction of hydrogen molecules.
