β¦ Synopsis
Polarized Raman scattering measurements were made of a single crystal of a-pseudouridine by the use of a Raman microscope with 488. 0 nm exciting radiation from an argon ion laser. The crystal belongs to space group P2 1 (monoclinic), and Raman scattering intensities, corresponding to the aΒΊaΒΊ, bb, cc, aΒΊb and bc components of the crystalline Raman tensor, were determined for each prominent Raman band. Here the aΒΊ-axis was deΓned as an axis perpendicular to the c-axis in the ac plane. From the experimental results, the shapes and orientations of the Raman scattering tensors were derived for 12 base vibrations in pseudouridine. By comparing these tensors with those determined previously for uracil and thymine vibrations, the polarizability oscillations caused by normal vibrations localized in the pyrimidine base are discussed.

## Abstract A theory is presented which describes resonance Raman scattering via continuum electronic states of diatomic molecules. It is applied to the dissociative continuum of the bounded __B__(^3^Ξ ~__o__+__u__~)βstate and the continuum of the repulsive ^1^Ξ ~1__u__~ state of the halogen molecule
Raman intensities are proportional to matrix elements of the type (VI Qni VA n): tt = 1 for a first order transition and n = 2 for an overtone. Employing pure harmonic oscillator type wave functions it is shown that the same tensor links the successive vibrational levels of one particular normal coo
