Abstract: • The program TROVE computes variationally rovibrational states of smaller molecules. • We have extended it to simulate nonresonant Raman spectra. • Input for the simulations are ab initio potential and polarizability surfaces. • Simulations for CH 3 are in good agreement with available experimental data. • The extended program provides new support for remote-sensing experiments. We report first-principles variational simulation of the non-resonant Raman spectrum for the methyl radical (12CH 3) in the electronic ground state. Calculations are based on a high level ab initio potential energy and dipole moment surfaces of CH 3 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 CH 3 are found to be in a good agreement with the available experimental data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
