Abstract
The numerical calculation of semiclassical rotational transition probabilities up to second order is presented. Various electric multipole potentials are considered. The results are used to calculate rotationally inelastic collision cross sections. This is applied to energy and angular momentum transfer in HCN–HCN and ICN–ICN collisions, respectively. Applications to rotational linewidth calculations are also discussed.Keywords
