Spectra of CH₄-He mixtures were measured in the P and R branch regions of v₃ vibration-rotation band at lower pressures of 0.26-1.0 bar and for the whole band at higher pressures up to 90 bar. The line broadening coefficients were found from lower pressure data for the lines of the P branch. These coefficients were calculated in the framework of the Robert and Bonamy semi-classical approach. In general, they agree with the experimental ones, but a small J-dependent deviation was observed. Line mixing effects were observed at all pressures. At higher pressures they were interpreted in terms of the adjusted branch-coupling model. At lower pressures line mixing effects were found to be especially pronounced in the region of the relatively weak lines forming the clusters from R(16) to R(19).
