Abstract

The direct numerical diagonalization (DND) $method^{1}$, which has achieved considerable success with calculations for $CO_{2}$, is now being applied to calculations of line position and intensity for the water molecule. The basis functions utilized by $Johnson^{2}$, the bisector valence coordinate Hamiltonian developed by Carter, Handy, and $Sutcliffe^{3}$, and the potential function calculated by $Jensen^{4}$ have been combined with the direct product expansion approach of DND. Comparisons will be given between Jensen’s potential function, expanded around the equilibrium angle, and a preliminary potential function, expanded around linearity. Comparison of our calculations with previous investigators and observations will be given with respect to line intensity as well as line position $data.^{1}$R. B. WATTSON AND L. S. ROTHMAN, J. Mol.
