“…22 Pressure broadening, shifting and ''wind effect'' (speed-dependence of collisional relaxation) of pure rotational lines were extensively studied. [23][24][25][26][27] The effect of collisional coupling leading to mixing of CO lines was investigated for the fundamental rovibrational 28 and the first overtone bands. 29 To the best of our knowledge, the shape of rotational lines of the CO spectrum was not investigated at elevated (close to atmospheric and above) pressures, except for the previous work 30 dedicated to the R(0) line, hereafter referred to as Paper I, and to which some of us have contributed.…”
