Hello chaps,

I'm trying to calculate absorption coefficients of gases at moderate temperatures ie ranges in which diatomic gases (such as N2 orO2) are partially disassociated or ionised, therefore including molecular bands as well as continuum. Can anyone recommend some suitable reading material for me to get started on this problem. Many thanks

Thanks for that. Looks very comprehensive.
 
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...
