Abstract
The absorption coefficient o(w) for the nonpolarized radiation in the isotropic medium is cz(w)-'—Am p(2K+1) { (llK)* P'f+ P// (TLK) R;jf } (1) i:f j'f' where is the reduced matrix element of the resolvent operator I f';if (ilK) _ 1 RjIfI;jf (UK) (UK) w-L —A,, S j f .if L11 and A11 are the matricies of reduced elements of the Liouville and relaxation operators, which are defined in the line space of the absorbing molecule. The diagonal elements of the relaxation operator define the half widths and shifts of the individual lines, the nondiagonal elements are the cross-relaxation parameters responsible for the line mixing. Within the framework of impact approximation the relaxation operator is I' = 1bJd()Tr {[i U(oo_co)] b} (3) where is the thermal bath density and U(oo,-co) is the scattering operator in the combined Liouville space of the absorbing molecule and the bath particle. The averaging is performed over the bath particle states and the classical path parameters. In general the halfwidth and the shift are to be calculated simultaneously, however, usually the former is taken from the experiment or from the isolated line approximation calclations. To calculate the crossrelaxation parameters different models ' or the infinite order sudden approximation method which has only limited application in the molecular spectroscopy, are used.
