Abstract
The influence of water molecule symmetry on hindered rotation has been investigated for H2O-He,H2O(D2O)-CO2 systems, where CO2 molecule is treated as an atom. A strong coupling model has been used for calculating the energy spectra. The eigenfunctions of Morse oscillator and asymmetric top have been used as a basis set. The results show that experimentally observed effect of spin-selective water vapour codensation may be explained by the differences between binding energies of para- and orthomodifications for H2O(D2O) molecules.
