Raman transitions are of considerable interest as well. Furthermore, in the Appendix we consider briefly the literature concerning collision-induced electronic, reactive, and nonlinear light scattering processes. 

As in the Rayleigh case, the pair polarizability results as well from nonlinear light scattering mechanisms (induced by hyperpolarizabilities and permanent multipole moments). For tetrahedral molecules nonlinear mechanisms contribute to some correlation functions listed in Table V—only those related to the depolarized spectrum and governed by double rotational transitions (QQ, QO, and 00). The nonlinear origin corrections Atp j7"1 j2 which must be added to the linear origin terms cp 1 °f Table V for a tetrahedral molecule are successively [17]... 

Tensor notation is central to the theory of both linear and nonlinear light scattering, so a brief summary is appropriate here. A Greek subscript denotes a vector or tensor component and can be x,y or z. A repeated Greek subscript within a term denotes a sum over all three cartesian components this is the tensor equivalent of a scalar product so that, for example.
