Einstein A-coefficients for rotational transitions in H2O in vibrationally excited nu(2) state

We have calculated Einstein A-coefficients for electric dipole transitions in the vibrationally excited nu(2) state of H2O, between the rotational levels up to 1500 cm(-1). These data play important role for analysing the spectra from astronomical objects. The A-coefficients are used for computing the mean radiative lifetimes of the levels. The radiative lifetimes show that besides the transition 4(14)-->3(21) at 67.804 GHz, observed in Orion A, the transition 4(23)-->3(30) at 12.003 GHz has very high probability for its detection in astronomical objects.
