Content:
Diatomic molecules consist of only two atoms. In this book, the authors describe how quantum mechanics can be used to predict diatomic molecule spectra in a gaseous state by discussing the calculation of their spectral line intensities. The book provides a comprehensive overview on diatomic molecule fundamentals before emphasising the applications of spectroscopy predictions in analysis of experimental data. With over 30 years of experience in measurements and quantitative analysis of recorded data, the authors communicate valuable references to any academic engaged in the field of spectroscopy and the book serves as a comprehensive guide to anyone with a genuine interest in the subject.
