Global variational calculations of high-resolution rovibrational spectra: isotopic effects, intensity anomalies and experimental confirmations for H2S, HDS, D2S molecules

Abstract Variational calculations of high-resolution infrared molecular spectra for isotopically substituted triatomic molecules from potential and dipole moment functions are discussed. A study of intensity anomalies and of their isotopical behavior especially for symmetry-breaking substitutions represents a particularly interesting subject. Extreme manifestations of intensity anomalies present in spectra of the hydrogen sulfide molecule are considered. A first qualitative experimental confirmation of reported theoretical results for deuterium containing species is discussed. To cite this article: Vl.G. Tyuterev et al., C. R. Physique 5 (2004).
