Temperature collision-induced light scattering

Collision-induced light scattering spectra vary with temperature. These variations are of interest because at high temperatures the interactions are probed at smaller separations than at the lower temperatures. An accurate knowledge of the induction operators (i.e., induced trace and anisotropy) over a maximal range of separations is most desirable. Such temperature-controlled studies are just now emerging [197].

CILS spectroscopy is concerned with the frequency, density, polarization, and temperature dependences of supermolecular light scattering. Pure and mixed gases are considered, that is, complexes of like and of dissimilar molecules are of interest. In Section 1.3, we consider ordinary collision-induced Raman scattering nonlinear and electronic collision-induced Raman processes are the subject of the Appendix CILS of liquid and solid samples are considered in Part II, together with molecular dynamics simulations.
