Although the collision-induced absorption spectrum of molecular nitrogen has been studied in detail, rovibrational dynamics studies of the dimer remain scarce at best. Here, the authors report on the structure, rovibrational energy levels and nuclear dynamics of N2⋅N2, using newly developed 4D and 6D potential energy surfaces, resulting in a large number of bound rovibrational states and accurate shift and splitting values for the intramonomer (quasi-bound) stretch fundamentals.
