Abstract

We report first-principles variational simulation of the non-resonant Raman spectrum for the methyl radical (¹²CH₃) in the electronic ground state. Calculations are based on a high level ab initio potential energy and dipole moment surfaces of CH₃ and employ the accurate variational treatment of the ro-vibrational dynamics implemented in the general code TROVE [S. N. Yurchenko, W. Thiel, and P. Jensen, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 245, 126–140 (2007); A. Yachmenev and S. N. Yurchenko, J. Chem. Phys. 143, 014105 (2015)]. TROVE can be applied to arbitrary molecules of moderate size and we extend here its capabilities towards simulations of Raman spectra. The simulations for CH₃ are found to be in a good agreement with the available experimental data.
