Abstract

The vibrational-rotational absorption spectrum of water vapor within the range 15500–16000 cm−1 is measured and analyzed. The spectrum is recoded with an IFS-125M Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.03 cm−1, at pressure of 25 mbar, at a temperature of 24°C, and at an optical path length of 34.8 m. The measurements are performed using a multipass White cell with a base length of 60 cm. A light-emitting diode is used as a radiation source. The signal-to-noise ratio is about 104, which makes it possible to measure the parameters of lines with intensities on the order of 10−27 cm/molecule. The centers, intensities, and half-widths of lines are determined by fitting the Voigt profile parameters to measured data set by the least squares method. A list of more than 430 lines is formed based on the analysis of the spectrum. The obtained results are compared with calculated and experimental data of other authors.
