Nth overtone

Using Eq. (1-30) of Chapter 1, we can express the frequency of the nth overtone of a totally symmetric vibration as... 

For reasons which are stated in [56] and [41], the reference frequency at the nth overtone is never strictly equal to nff. 

Some of the terminology of a -vibrating string accompanies vibrational spectroscopy. The V = 0 1 transition is called the fundamental, and the V = O n + 1 transition is called the nth overtone. Any absorption transition originating from a state where v 5 0 is called a hot hand, and transitions in...
