Measurements of N2-broadening and -shifting parameters of the water vapor spectral lines in the second hexad region

The water vapor line broadening and shifting in the ν₁+ν₂+ν₃ band induced by nitrogen pressure are measured with Bruker IFS 125 HR FTIR spectrometer at the spectral resolution of 0.01 cm⁻¹ for the line with upper states angular momentum up to 11. Line contour parameters are calculated using a semi-empirical approach extended by the use of empirical data to determine some fitting model parameters. We use the complete set of high accuracy vibration-rotation dipole transition moments calculated for all possible transitions using wavefunctions determined from variational nuclear motion calculations and an ab initio dipole moment surface. Calculated values of line contour parameters are in a good agreement with observed parameters.
