Infrared radiative forcing of CFC substitutes and their atmospheric reaction products

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed the radiative forcing function recently computed by Pinnock et al. [1995, in conjunction with infrared cross sections and vibrational frequencies calculated with ab initio quantum-mechanical methods, to estimate the instantaneous infrared forcing terms.

Dynamic atomic contributions to infrared intensities of fundamental bands.

TL;DR: Sums of dynamic contributions of the individual intensities for all vibrational modes of the molecule are shown to be equal to mass weighted atomic effective charges that can be determined from atomic polar tensors evaluated from experimental infrared intensities and frequencies.

Similarity transference of molecular parameters. II: The bond distances, force constants and polar tensors of HC3N and HC5N

TL;DR: In this paper, the similarity transference procedure is extended to the calculations of the geometries and vibrational frequencies of HC3N and HC5N, and simple linear regression calculations based on these similarity models and using STO-3G values of the bond distances and force constants of HC 3N result in estimates of the experimental bond distance and frequencies which have root mean square errors about an order of magnitude smaller than the one for the molecular orbital values.

Vibrational Intensities. II. The Use of Isotopes

TL;DR: In this paper, two rules are presented which relate the intensities of vibrational fundamentals of different isotopic species, analogous to the Teller-Redlich product rule which relates frequencies.

Infrared Intensity Sum Rule and Effective Charges

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the sum of integrated infrared intensities is given by a simple expression that depends upon atomic masses, effective charge parameters, and the molecular dipole moment, but is otherwise independent of molecular geometry.
