Inversion Splitting

Inversion Splitting is a quantum mechanical phenomenon in molecular spectroscopy wherein degenerate vibrational or rotational energy levels of a symmetric molecule are split due to tunneling through a potential barrier that connects equivalent spatial configurations, leading to observable doublets in the spectrum.
