Three broadening mechanisms for the ortho pair spectrum in solid hydrogen are investigated. First, theoretical predictions of the phonon induced lifetime broadening are presented. Next a theory is developed which gives the inhomogeneous broadening due to the presence of ortho molecules surrounding the pairs. An unexpected result is that certain lines remain unbroadened, at least to within the approximations made. Strain effects due to isotopic mass defect impurities are also considered. These predictions are then compared with experimental results. No temperature dependence of the lineshapes is observed, setting an upper limit on the phonon broadening contribution to the linewidth. This limit is an order of magnitude lower than the theory predicts. The predictions of the ortho broadening theory, on the other hand, are in good agreement with experiment. Samples doped with isotopic impurities are also investigated.
