One, but each CO2 molecule can be in a different vibrational and rotational state.

In principle, odorant isotopomers provide a possible test of shape vs. vibration mechanisms: replacing, for example, hydrogen with deuterium in an odorant leaves the ground - state conformation of the molecule unaltered while doubling atomic mass and so altering the frequency of all its vibrational modes to a greater or lesser extent [11In principle, odorant isotopomers provide a possible test of shape vs. vibration mechanisms: replacing, for example, hydrogen with deuterium in an odorant leaves the ground - state conformation of the molecule unaltered while doubling atomic mass and so altering the frequency of all its vibrational modes to a greater or lesser extent [11in an odorant leaves the ground - state conformation of the molecule unaltered while doubling atomic mass and so altering the frequency of all its vibrational modes to a greater or lesser extent [11].

In fact, there may be no faster way — except through prayer and meditation — to raise your vibrational state quickly.

The higher the vibrational frequency of the emotional state you are in, the more effective the process becomes.

Being is the state of vibrational frequency that you emanate and it will show up in the way you think and you act.

Deep levels of healing and transformation are also commonly reported after sound healing sessions As stated in the Energy Medicine section, all healing that is being performed today is vibrational or sound based.

For a collection of CO2 molecules, say at 20» C, what proportion of the molecules are in the various excited vibrational states accessible to CO2?

A warm parcel of air will radiate more than a colder parcel, even at the same 390 ppm of CO2 in the air due to the population of the different rotational and vibrational energy states of the GHGs from collisions with other atmospheric molecules in the LTE limit.

Almost immediately (nanoseconds) they relax from their excited state by either 1) emitting that energy as a new photon, some of which will continue up towards space, some of which will go back downward to be reabsorbed, thus keeping the energy in the atmosphere longer, or 2) by colliding with another gas molecule, most likely an O2 (oxygen) or N2 (nitrogen) molecule since they make up over 98 % of the atmosphere, thereby converting the extra vibrational energy into kinetic energy by transferring it to the other gas molecule, which will then collide with other molecules, and so on, making the air warmer.

The molecules, even in the vibrational ground state are vibrating back and forth about the equilibrium value (in CO2 the primary importance is bending away from linear, back and forth).

CO2 begins re-emitting again after the average temperature of the LTE increases to the amount that CO2 in thermal equilibrium has a non-trivial excited state population in the relevant vibrational mode.

So when a molecule absorbs a photon (which, by definition results in an excited vibrational and / or rotational state) the very process of re-establishing equilibrium means that some of that energy winds up in translation.

We know that in equilibrium the distribution of the vibrational quantum states (e.g how many molecules are in a state with energy Ei) is invariant and depends only on temperature.

The reason is that the IR activated vibrational density of states is full so the excess energy pseudo-diffuses to heterogeneities, in the case of Tyndall the wall of the brass tube.

Molecules in gas have discrete vibrational and rotational states that are related to visible, IR and microwave radiation.

Molecules in liquid don't have such clean discrete states but they do still interact more strongly at frequencies close to such vibrational states.

My main point is that my substantial physics training leads me to believe that the main impact of GHGs is vibrational excitation followed by return to the ground state, emitting a photon of the same wavelength but in a random direction, rather than by any significant transfer of internal vibrational energy to thermal energy of surrounding molecules.

Gases do not emit as black bodies, they can only emit in certain wavelength bands which correspond to transitions between certain rotational / vibrational states.

OK so please describe in detail the mechanism by which N2 and O2 radiate this energy if it is not by the movement of electrons between different energy states (as a consequence of the vibrational modes of the molecule) which causes the characteristic absorption and emission lines.

One of Phil's recent comments indicated to me, that he believes, that the N2 / O2 / Ar do NOT radiate, as per my concept; BUT those gases are in thermal equilibrium with the trace CO2 / H2O / O3 / whatever other GHG molecules that are IR active, so they match in Temperature, and then the IR active GHG molecules radiate according to whatever vibrational / rotational etc states those molecules have; so that the «Atmospheric LWIR radiation» then does carry the signature of the various GHG species, rather than being «BB like».
