The spectra are compared with a number of kinetic model calculations based on the Wang–Chang Uhlenbeck equation. It is concluded that n-H 2 behaves effectively as a system characterized by a single relaxation time for the internal degrees of freedom and that the S6 model of Tenti et al. gives a very good description of the Rayleigh–Brillouin spectrum of a molecular gas at low and medium densities. At higher densities the models fail because the Wang–Chang Uhlenbeck equation is no longer valid.Read More
