Alternatively, this spectral feature also displays several qualitative attributes of a Fano resonance profile (coupling between a discrete bright state and a continuum of bright states) which describes the experimental spectroscopic profile equally well (not shown) and yields similarly large coupling constants.

Furthermore, upon close examination of intermolecular vibrational couplings in neat liquid water and ice, another flaw of the prevalent electrostatic model was unravelled: (point) dipole-dipole couplings between vibrational modes of nearest neighbour water molecules are very small as the relative orientation between localized molecular transition dipoles (∼71 in tetrahedral H-bonded networks) approaches the magic angle.
