14. It is of interest to note that, at room temperature, an average distance between molecules of 8 μm corresponds to a pressure of 6× 10-8 torr. It is well known that, physically, long-range multipole potentials are damped out at distances comparable to the average intermolecular distance. Thus our calculations are carried past any such point in typical experiments. When considering real experimental data, effects of molecular rotation will be more dramatic than this damping effect.
