Abstract
Raman spectroscopy is a widely used and powerful analytical tool, being regularly used to provide information on the structure and dynamics of molecular systems and their interactions. In recent years, theoretical progresses and new experimental developments in Raman pectroscopy have stimulated each other. Thus, Raman spectroscopy provides a good example of the synergy between theory and experiment, much emphasized in this Institute. In this lecture special attention is payed to the various Raman scattering processes, their frequency dependence and the re-emission lifetime. The resonance Raman spectra of heme proteins is considered and some spectra-structure correlations pointed out.
