                                I did not intend to generate negative Erot.
                                I cut off the populations if their energy levels are negative, and made the total
                                population be unity by using normalization factors (see, e.g., Eq. 12).

                                I hope that my answer is of help to you and your work is going well.
                                With best wishes,
                                Junko

                                >Thanks for the reply.  By cutting off the population, should we set the
                                >population to zero when Erot becomes negative, or should we set Erot to
                                >a small positive number? 

                                I just set the population to zero when Erot becomes negative.
                                Our model is still a rough one for the vibration-rotation distribution function
                                of H2 newly formed on dust, because we have not yet had any exact
                                experimental or theoretical data about it.
