Abstract
An analysis is made of vibrational packets created in molecules by collisions with fast protons. Some characteristic features of the Raman light scattering spectrum are discussed for a molecule with squeezed vibrational states. It is suggested that squeezed vibrational states in the ground electronic state of a molecule may be used for isotope separation.
