 Stokes constants
In the immediate vicinity of an anti-Stokes line the two W.K.B. solutions have about the same magnitude, so it is mathematically consistent to include the contributions from both solutions in the expression for the general solution.
As we cross a Stokes line, the coefficient of the dominant W.K.B. solution in our expression for the general solution must remain unchanged, but the coefficient of the subdominant solution is allowed to change discontinuously.
In doing so, we cross a Stokes line, so the coefficient of the dominant solution must remain constant, but the coefficient of the subdominant solution is allowed to change.

Also widely known is the fact that the semi-axis $[\lambda, \infty)$ is a Stokes line of the differential equation $L u = \lambda u$ for each fixed value of the spectral parameter $\lambda$.
In this paper, we show that the connection between the existence of Stokes lines on the real axis and points of the absolutely continuous spectrum holds under much more general circumstances.
Further correlations, connecting the Stokes phenomenon with the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of $L u = \lambda u$ at infinity and with the boundary behaviour of the Titchmarsh-Weyl $m$-function at $\lambda$, are also deduced.

 Asymptotic series: A mathematical aside
The jumps in the coefficients of the subdominant series are chosen in such a manner that if we perform a complete circuit in the complex plane then the value of the asymptotic expansion is the same at the beginning and the end points.
On a Stokes line the magnitude of the dominant series achieves its maximum value with respect to that of the subdominant series.
Every time we cross a Stokes line the coefficient in front of the dominant series stays the same, but that in front of the subdominant series jumps discontinuously [see Eqs.

A maximum of 10 mJ (19% efficiency) of first Stokes energy was measured for the highest cell pressure (490 psia) and input pulse energy (53 mJ).
The quality of the first Stokes output is similar to the dye laser output as indicated by polarization, shot-to-shot energy fluctuation, beam diameter, and linewidth.
A characterization of the Stokes and anti-Stokes output was also conducted including one-dimensional spatial intensity profiles and output line dependence on input pulse energy and cell pressure.

 Raman Scattering
For polarizable molecules, the incident photon energy can excite vibrational modes of the molecules, yielding scattered photons which are diminished in energy by the amount of the vibrational transition energies.
For example, the scattering produced by a laser beam directed on the plume from an industrial smokestack can be used to monitor the effluent for levels of molecules which will produce recognizable Raman lines.
The sketch below is an idealized depiction of a Raman line produced by interaction of a photon with a diatomic molecule for which the rotational energy levels depend upon one moment of inertia.

 Atlas: The influence of G.G. Stokes on the modern asymptotic theory of differential equations by Alastair Wood   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
It may therefore seem strange to find Stokes celebrated at a BMC (although it is appropriate that he be recognised in Belfast), but the present day ramifications of his mathematical papers, especially those of 1857 and 1864 on asymptotic analysis, are out of all proportion to their relatively small number.
In Stokes phenomenon, an asymptotic expansion of a function of a complex variable can change its form near certain rays in the plane (now known as Stokes lines) through the apparently discontinuous appearance of a further series with an exponentially small prefactor and multiplicative constant (the Stokes multiplier).
We review the way in which these later authors have made use of two of Stokes’s key ideas: the optimal truncation of the dominant series (that is, just before its least term) to give an exponentially small remainder; and secondly the resummation of the divergent tail of the expansion to improve its computational accuracy.

Because the ground-state population is greater than that of the excited state, the Stokes lines are more intense than the Anti-Stokes lines (Ingle and Crouch 1988).
A high-quality wavelength selection device such as a diffraction grating is required in Raman spectroscopy to ensure that relatively weak Raman lines are separated from backscattered Rayleigh radiation transmitted by the probe, and it also must separate Raman transitions of similar energy to produce adequate detail in the spectral fingerprint.
Provided that the instrument line shape function (ILS) is known, high-resolution reference spectra can be convoluted with the ILS to yield the exact spectrum at lower resolution.

A normal mode involves the simultaneous movement of all (or many) atoms in the molecules; all atoms move at the same frequency and stay in phase.
Since there are few of these, the Stokes lines are much more intense.
We also expect the population of the excited states to be reduced as the energy of the vibration increases (Boltzmann exp{-E/kT} term.) Thus the 459 anti-Stokes is greatly reduced relative to the matching Stokes line.
