    Abstract

    An analytical expression for the description of the shape of continuous absorption bands is calculated within the framework of a new one-dimensional potential model. The calculations are based on a semi-classical approximation of the Franck-Condon factors and on the application of the Mehler formula for the sum calculation of statistically weighted position probability densities.
