Calculating the electronic barrier with an accuracy of 0.1 kcal/mol is only possible for very simple systems. An accuracy of 1 kcal/mol is usually considered a good, but hard to get, level of accuracy. The situation is slightly better for relative energies of stable species, but a 1 kcal/mol accuracy still requires a significant computational effort. Thermodynamic corrections beyond the rigid rotor/harmonic vibrations approximation are therefore rarely performed. 

It is interesting to note that the action of the moon on the oceans is such as to excite vibrations approximating the I2 modes with a phase difference of a quarter cycle between them. This is why the period of the tides is 12 hours although the earth rotates under the moon with a period of 24 hours. 

A strong anharmonie interaction between the vibrations approximately described as rXH and vX.ll Y. There is independent evidence for a parametric relationship between the X Y and X—H interim clear distances from diffraction studies. The resulting effect on the vibrational spectrum increases with the anharmonicity and amplitude of both types of vibration, and seems to be most completely described by a type of energy level scheme proposed by Stepanov. A slight extension of this theory proposed here enables it to explain the persistence of broad vX l absorption regions at low temperatures. 

Do bonds behave like springs It is well-established that for the small vibrational amplitudes of the bonds of most molecules at or below room temperature, the spring approximation, i.e. the simple harmonic vibration approximation, is fairly good, although for high accuracy one must recognize that molecules are actually anharmonic oscillators [3]. 

The time frame for nuclear oscillations has far-reaching consequences for energy dissipation. In particular, as the nuclei oscillate back and forth along their trajectories, they can interact with other nuclei. These encounters make possible the transfer of energy from one nucleus to another (within the same molecule or to adjacent molecules). Thus the time for one cycle of a nuclear vibration, approximately 10 13 s, is an estimate of the time in which excess vibrational energy can be dissipated as heat by interactions with other... 

The i.r, spectra of the adducts Mc3NBH2X and Me3NBHX2 were analysed using the group-vibration approximation. ... 

For the 2 molecules CIF3 (3.10) or BrF3, there are six normal modes of vibration, approximately described as equatorial stretch, S5Tnmetric axial stretch, asymmetric axial stretch and three deformation modes. All six modes are IR active. 

At the other extreme, the O atoms could be attached to heavy fragments such that the effective mass of the relevant vibration approximates the mass of the oxygen isotope, That is, fUf, 16u and /U g 18u... 

In the harmonic vibration approximation the ratio E 4 1)/E 2l) is equal to 2. There are really many even-even nuclei, for which this ratio is between 2.0 and 2.4, especially in the A < 140 region. 

In contrast with the geometrical collective model, in IBM-1 the number of valence bosons is finite. The consequences of finite boson numbers were verified by the experiments. One can see in Fig. 2.25b, e.g., that the reduced E2 transition probabilities in Cd and Pd nuclei are better reproduced in IBM-1 calculations than in the harmonic vibrator approximation. In the latter case the allowed phonon number may be infinitely large. (The vibration quanta, i.e., the phonons, are analogous to bosons.)... 

For each normal mode of vibration, there is a potential-energy relationship such as that shown by the solid lines in Figure 16-3b. The same selection rules discussed earlier apply for each of these relationships. In addition, to the extent that a vibration approximates harmonic behavior, the differences between the energy levels of a given vibration are the same that is. 

Epoxy ring compounds " absorb at 1280-1230 cm" as a result of the ring breathing vibration (C—C, C—O, and C 0 bonds all stretching in phase). There are two other ring vibrations approximately described as... 

In the limit of a weak and highly unsymmetrical hydrogen bond, isotopic sensitivity is again confined to a single vibration, and characteristically one vibration approximates that of the monovalent hydrogen while the other is of low frequency and isotopically insensitive [17]. This behaviour has been discussed in detail for triatomic... 

The potential energy V is a function of only one parameter, r = X2 — xi, the distance between the nuclei. Near the equilibrium distance, re, when the molecule is at the bottom of the potential well (Fig. 3.2.1), the potential is approximately parabolic, and the vibration approximates that of a harmonic oscillator, just as if the nuclei were connected by a linear spring. If we write q = r — for the displacement from equilibrium, Eq. (3.3.1) becomes...
