The Symmetry of Molecules and Molecular Vibrations

  • Chapter
Low Temperature Molecular Spectroscopy

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 483))

Abstract

Symmetry strictly defines relations between molecular spectra and molecular structure. This chapter focuses on the mathematical tools which are necessary to apply symmetry concepts to vibrational spectroscopy.
