A short-range force constant model was used to investigate the phonons in B
aCeO3 perovskite in the orthorhombic phase, The calculations with just 14 s
tretching and bending force constants provide good agreement for the Raman
wavenumbers, The oxygen-oxygen interatomic forces are included explicitly f
or the first time in investigations of phonons. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wil
