The main effort in this study is focused on devising a numerical model procedure capable of providing reliable values of collisionally induced microscopic properties of importance in processes of light radiation interactions with molecular media. Special attention is devoted to the anisotropic polarizability of the weakly bound H-H compounds, although broader applicability of the routines proposed is anticipated as well. To this end, Cartesian components of the collision-induced anisotropic polarizability, Δα , are obtained for the L- (linear, 0°), S- (45°), and T-shape (90°) configurations of the supermolecular systems.

The work continues a series of earlier projects marking the revival of interest in linear light scattering following the development of new highly advanced tools of quantum chemistry and other theoretical, computational, and experimental means of spectral analyses. Sophisticated ab initio computing procedures are applied in order to obtain the anisotropic polarizability component's dependence on the H2-Rg geometry.

The Cartesian components of the collisional polarizabilities of the H2-Rg systems are found by means of the quantum chemistry methods and their dependence on the intermolecular distance is determined. On the basis of these data, the spherical, symmetry adapted components of the trace polarizability are derived in order to provide data sets that are convenient for evaluating collisional spectral profiles of the isotropic polarized part of light scattered by the H2-Rg mixtures.

The most massive and polarizable scattering supermolecules with Rg = Kr and Xe have been added to the previously considered systems in order to gain a more complete insight into the evolution of the spectral properties. The symmetry adapted components of the first collisional hyperpolarizabilities are obtained by means of the quantum chemistry numerical routines supplemented with appropriate theoretical methods.

In this study, the symmetry-adapted (SA) components, the projection of the CI dipole, polarizability, and hyperpolarizability on an appropriately tailored set of spherical harmonics are calculated. A set of equations for the respective SA components is derived.

A method for the computation of the spherical, rotationally adapted components Deltabeta(lambdaL) ((s,K))(R) of Deltabeta(R) needed for spectroscopic line shape analysis is proposed. Both the vector and the septor parts of the H(2)-Ar CIHR spectrum are evaluated at room (T=295 K) temperature.

This is a supplementary study undertaken in order to complete the series of our previously published papers on the collisional hyper-Rayleigh scattering spectral profiles. In order to evaluate the moments we have extended the theory so that it could embrace the (hyper)polarizabilities of higher rank.
