The stretching vibration-rotation Hamiltonian of tetrahedral molecules is derived in the local-mode model. The result shows that the effective rotational Hamiltonian of a local-mode state gives rise to symmetric-top rotational energy levels, which are quantitatively in good agreement with experiment

The stretching and bending vibrations of methane are described in a local-mode anharmonic symmetry adapted model. Both Hecht-and Fermi-like interactions are considered. We start by establishing the Hamiltonian of the system in terms of internal coordinates and momenta. The Hamiltonian is then rewrit
We present a simple, analytic model for the normal and local mode behavior of the stretching vibrations in AB, molecules. Starting with a zeroth-order description ofdegenerate, harmonic normal modes, we introduce a quartic perturbation and employ first-order secular perturbation theory to obtain a
The present paper reports the derivation of a new theoretical model describing the rotation and vibration of a triatomic molecule. The new method is based on the MORBID (Morse Oscillatory Rigid Bender Internal Dynamics) method (P. Jensen, J. Mol. Spectross: 128, 478-501 (1988): P. Jensen. J. (hcm. S
