Multipolar polarizabilities optically isotropic molecules

The influence of multipolar polarizabilities has been examined subsequently in several optically isotropic molecules such as CH4, CD4, neopentane, CF4, or SF6 [4,7-14,17,18]. In this review, our attention is focused on CF4 for which both Rayleigh [8,13] and Vi Raman [17,18] depolarized and isotropic bands have been studied and published by us. In the Rayleigh studies, we measured the /j (v) and / (v) intensities that are scattered by gaseous CF4 up to 340 cm-1, in...
