Semi-empirical calculations of line-shape parameters and their temperature dependences for the v(6) band of CH3D perturbed by N-2

(J, K)-line broadening and shift coefficients with their temperature-dependence characteristics are computed for the perpendicular (Delta K = +/- 1) v(6) band of the (CH3D)-C-12-N-2 system. The computations are based on a semi-empirical approach which consists in the use of analytical Anderson-type expressions multiplied by a few-parameter correction factor to account for various deviations from Anderson's theory approximations. A mathematically convenient form of the correction factor is chosen on the basis of experimental rotational dependencies of line widths, and its parameters are fitted on some experimental line widths at 296 K. To get the unknown CH3D polarizability in the excited vibrational state v(6) for line-shift calculations, a parametric vibration-state-dependent expression is suggested, with two parameters adjusted on some room-temperature experimental values of line shifts. Having been validated by comparison with available in the literature experimental values for various sub-branches of the band, this approach is used to generate massive data of line-shape parameters for extended ranges of rotational quantum numbers (J up to 70 and K up to 20) typically requested for spectroscopic databases. To obtain the temperature-dependence characteristics of line widths and line shifts, computations are done for various temperatures in the range 200-400 K recommended for HITRAN and least-squares fit procedures are applied. For the case of line widths strong sub-branch dependence with increasing K is observed in the R- and P-branches; for the line shifts such dependence is stated for the Q-branch. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
