Rovibrational

Their molecules are diatomic, and as such they aren't capable of achieving the quantized vibrational, rotational or rovibrational states responsible for absorption and emission of thermal radiation. ❋ Unknown (2009)

However, a vibrational state makes possible other degrees of freedom, as as such quantized rovibrational states. ❋ Unknown (2009)

During thirty-five years living and working in Germany she has published numerous articles and several reviews on the rotational and rovibrational spectra and dynamics of small molecules. ❋ Jewish Women's Archive (2006)

The greenhouse effect is the result of molecules being stimulated into vibrational, rotational and rovibrational states of excitation. ❋ Unknown (2009)

It could be changed into a different rovibrational state, which is likely to result in emission of a less energetic photon or by absorption of extra energy of the right magnitude (inelastic collision again, or a photon impinging on the excited molecule before it can release the energy in a sympathetic photon emission. ❋ Unknown (2009)
