Theoretical Reims-Tomsk Spectral data

Guest   |  

These are archives
of theoretical line lists of methane at T=80, 296, 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000K
corresponding to the previous realease of the TheoreST database in 2016.

 
 
   Theoretical methane line lists included in the TheoReTS-2016 release were calculated by the variational method (except for "mixed abinitio/effective" model, see below # ))
from the following ab initio based potential energy surface (PES) and dipole moment surfaces (DMS):

NRT PES-2011: 
A.Nikitin, M.Rey, and Vl.G.Tyuterev , Rotational and vibrational energy levels of methane calculated from a new potential energy surface, Chemical Physics Letters,  501, Issues 4-6,  pp 179-186 (2011)

Ab initio DMS was defined in the same format as NRT DMS-2013 ( A.V. Nikitin, M. Rey, Vl.G. Tyuterev, New dipole moment surfaces of methane, Chem. Phys. Lett. , 565, 5–11 (2013)) but was recently improved using larger electronic basis set (JCP-2017)

Techniques of variational calculations are decribed in

High-T line lists were calculated using the same approach as described in:
M. Rey, A.V. Nikitin and Vl. G. Tyuterev, "Theoretical hot methane line list up to 2000 K", Astrophysical Journal, 789 (2014) 1
but were further improved in TheoReTS using larger vibrational basis sets and higher reduction scheme.

Simulations of absorption/emission spectra and XS ( Spectra simulation section ) for high-T using full-suze data use the "Super-lines" compression technique
as discribed in
Rey, M.; Nikitin, A. V.; and Tyuterev, Vl. G,  "TheoReTS - An information system for theoretical spectra based on variational predictions from molecular potential energy and dipole moment surfaces", J.Mol.Spectrosc., to be published (2016)

The partition Q(T) function was calculated as described in
Nikitin A.V., Krishna B.M., Rey M, Tashkun S.A., and  Tyuterev VlG. Methane high- temperature partition function from contact transformations and variational calculations. J Quant Spectrosc Radiat Transfer 2015;167:53–63.
