Line intensity parameters in the ν3 and 2ν3-ν3 bands of methyl chloride in the 13 µm region. (August 2020) - Dridi, N.
Highlights: Systematic measurements of line intensities of ro-vibrational absorption transitions of the ν3 and 2ν3 -ν3 parallel bands of 12 CH3 35 Cl and 12 CH3 37 Cl isotopes were performed. The rotational dependencies of line intensities were analyzed. The square of the transition dipole moment for each line has been determined. The vibrational transition moments, band intensities as well as Herman-Wallis coefficients for both bands are retrieved. Abstract: We performed the systematic measurements of line intensities of ro-vibrational absorption transitions of the ν3 and 2ν3 -ν3 parallel bands of 12 CH3 35 Cl and 12 CH3 37 Cl isotopes. The spectra were recorded in the spectral region between 650 and 800 cm −1 with a high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer. A mono-spectrum fitting technique was used to fit a series of seven spectra at pressures of CH3 Cl ranging from 1.02 to 10.24 mbar to retrieve line intensities of 2385 transitions of the two isotopic species. The measured line intensities are discussed in relation to rotational quantum numbers, and used to derive the square of the transition dipole moments for each line. The analysis of these moments allows us to derive a consistent set of line intensity parameters, such as vibrational transition moments, band intensities as well as Herman-Wallis coefficients for both bands. The results of the ν3 band are in satisfactory agreement with previous works and present databases, but a larger discrepancy (≈ 30%) is observed for the 2ν3 -ν3 hot band.
