An algebraic approach to the study of the vibrational spectra of HCN

Abstract

Using Lie algebra the vibrational energy levels of HCN were calculated using the local Hamiltonian for 35 vibrational bands. A comparative study was made with earlier results.

Keywords:

• Vibrational spectra
• Lie algebra
• HCN
