Abstract
The profile of the two-body collision-induced light scattering spectru m of CH4 at temperatures from 295 K to 130 K is calculated through a c lassical trajectory simulation of the collision. Free translational, b ound state, and single and double induced rotational contributions are included. The magnitudes of the dipole-quadrupole and dipole-octopole polarizabilities are found to be 0.75 Angstrom(4) and 2.7 Angstrom(5) , respectively, through comparison with experiment.
