Abstract
A modification of the SSH theory for collision-induced vibrational transitions in polyatomic molecules is proposed. The breathing-sphere model assumptions are avoided by considering the angular relation between the direction of approach and the normal modes displacements of the atoms involved in the contract (mode-matching). The results, as compared to the breathing-sphere model, indicate a considerable, mode specific reduction of the transition probabilities. Intramolecular transitions of CH 3Cl are studied as an example.
