Temperature dependence of collisional rate coefficients for rotational transitions: a-type asymmetric top molecules

On realizing that the rate coefficients for rotational transitions in the H2CS, H2CO, H2CC, H2CSi, due to collisions with He atom, under the IOS approximation, increase with the increase of kinetic temperature, we have looked analytically for 9 transitions in a-type asymmetric top molecules, because the results of Green et al. (1978) for H2CO do not increase for all the transitions, though they also are calculated under the IOS approximation. We tried to understand the source of discrepancy, but could not succeed, as the details of the work of Green et al. (1978) are not available. Data for other three molecules (H2CS, H2CC, H2CSi) are not available in the literature. Since our investigation is analytical, there is no reason not to believe our results.
