摘要：
We present comprehensive experimental line lists of methane (CH4) at high temperatures obtained by recording Fourier transform infrared emission spectra. Calibrated line lists are presented for the temperatures 300-1400 degrees C at twelve 100 degrees C intervals spanning the 960-5000 cm(-1) (2.0-10.4 mu m) region of the infrared. This range encompasses the dyad, pentad, and octad regions, i.e., all fundamental vibrational modes along with a number of combination, overtone and hot bands. Using our CH4 spectra, we have estimated empirical lower state energies (E-low in cm(-1)) and our values have been incorporated into the line lists along with line positions ((nu) over tilde in cm(-1)) and calibrated line intensities (S' in cm molecule(-1)). We expect our hot CH4 line lists to find direct application in the modeling of planetary atmospheres and brown dwarfs.
