Abstract:
A room temperature line list for the H215O radioactive isotopologue of the water molecule is computed using the variational nuclear-motion DVR3D program suite and an empirical high-precision potential energy function. The line list consists of rotation-vibrational energies and Einstein-A coefficients, covering a wide spectral range from 0 to 25000 cm-1 and the total angular momenta J up to 30. Estimates of air-broadening coefficients are provided. Experimentally derived energies of H216O, H217O and H218O from the literature are used to provide improved energies for important states with uncertainty estimates for the H215O. A number of the wmost promising spectroscopic ranges for the detection of H215O are proposed. The calculated absorption spectrum should be useful for the study gaseous radioactive water at IR region, determining concentration, etc.

IR Spectrum
Transmittance is defined as the ratio of the radiant power passing through a sample to that from the radiation's source. Multiplying the transmittance by 100 gives the percent transmittance (%T), which varies between 100% (no absorption) and 0%...
