Abstract

High resolution measurements of N2 and O2 broadening and shift coefficients for more than 100 H2O absorption lines have been performed. Data on the broadening and shift coefficients were obtained from the analysis of the absorption spectra, recorded in the 8650–9020 cm−1 spectral region at room temperature with the help of an IFS 125 HR Fourier spectrometer at a spectral resolution of 0.01 cm−1. It is shown that for a more exact definition of the line shift coefficients, it is necessary to take into account the contribution of all neighboring lines, even with an intensity two orders of magnitude lower than that of the measured line. A linear pressure dependence of line shifts was observed for all of the buffer gases.
