Abstract

Intensities for several OH vibrational overtone bands have been measured for vapor phase methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol. The trends in the intensities as a function of excitation level have been modeled by two empirical approaches, yielding intensity predictions for the higher overtone transitions, up to $7\nu(OH)$. These methods were also applied to recent $HNO_{3}$ overtone measurements, resulting in new intensity predictions for higher, photochemically-active overtone bands, which are compared with theoretical estimates.
