Hi, I am looking for online molecular emission spectra database for spectroscopic analysis of plasma. It would be great if searching in it is based on a wavelength of spectral lines/bands.

For atomic spectra I found this database: http://physics.nist.gov/PhysRefData/ASD/lines_form.html
But I couldn't find anything like that for molecular spectra which is essential for full analysis of spectra.

And my next question is (as I am beginner in spectra analysis) what is the right and most efficient way of analysing spectra? My current procedure is that I find a peak in my spectrum then I search appropriate atoms using the peak wavelength and then I match one atom (the one which has more characteristic lines in my spectrum) for the given peak wavelength. Is there more efficient way?

The NIST chemistry webbook has thermochemical and spectroscopic properties for a number of molecules: https://webbook.nist.gov/

This works fine for atomic absorption/emission, as well as x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, but for molecular spectroscopy, trying to correlate spectral lines with individual atoms won't work. The spectral features in general are made up of collective motions of nuclei/electrons.
 
From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...
Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
