The η bands of SiF, in the region 3300–3400 Å, have been photographed in emission at high resolution. A detailed rotational analysis has shown that these bands represent a 4Σ−–2Πτ transition. The lower state is the ground state of the molecule. The principal rotational constants of the upper and lower electronic states in cm−1 are as follows:[Formula: see text]A discussion of the electron configurations is also given.

The fine structures of three of the β bands of PO which occur near 3200 Å have been analyzed. The analysis shows that the upper state of this band system is a 2Σ and not a 2Π state as previously believed. The rotational constants of both electronic states have been determined and it is found that the ground state constants, previously determined from the γ bands, are incorrect.

The emission spectrum of the ReO molecule has been photographed under high resolution between 375 and 875 nm. In addition to the 711.9 and 404.5 nm systems previously studied a large number of new electronic transitions have been classified on the basis of Re16O/Re18O isotopic shifts. The rotational structures of 18 bands of Re16O and 1 band of Re18O have been analyzed. Two low-lying electronic states in addition to the known common lower state of the 711.9 and 404.5 nm systems have been identified.

The bands of the γ system of the PO molecule have been photographed under high dispersion (0.35 Å/mm). A rotational analysis of the 0–0, 0–1, and 1–0 bands is given, which differs from the one previously given by Sen Gupta. In addition, four more bands, namely, the 1–2, 2–1, 2–3, and 2–4 bands, have been analyzed. The bands are attributed to the electronic transition, A3Σ–X2Πreg, the lower state being the ground state of the molecule. The new rotational constants for the ground state are the following:[Formula: see text]The spin doubling in the upper state is small. Perturbations in the v = 0 level of the upper state, which were not reported previously, are observed and discussed. They supply a welcome confirmation of the correctness of the analysis here presented.

Rotational analysis of over 50 sub-bands of three emission transitions of 74GeF has given vibrational and rotational constants for the four lowest-lying electronic states of GeF. One of these is a 4Σ− state in Hund's case (a), where all four spin components have been identified. Extensive perturbations between this 4Σ− state and the B2Σ+ state have been analyzed in detail: the two states appear to interact mainly by a second-order mechanism through the so far uncharacterized σπ22Σ+ state, but the surprisingly large J dependence of the perturbation matrix element suggests that another mechanism, possibly involving the ground state, may contribute. Further perturbations, where the lines show an unusual intensity enhancement, appear in those sub-bands with B2Σ+ ν = 4 as upper state.

The infrared spectra of two B type bands, ν2 and 2ν1, of 14N16O2 have been recorded under high resolution. Ground state combination differences from these bands have been combined with combination differences obtained in previous studies and eight pure rotational microwave transitions to yield improved ground state rotational constants. Upper state constants and band centers for the ν2 and 2ν1 bands are also reported. The 2ν1 band contains internal intensity anomalies believed to arise from a weak Coriolis interaction with the much stronger ν1 + ν3 band. Equilibrium rotational constants have been calculated. The equilibrium structure of the molecule is: rc = 1.1945 ± 0.0005 Å and Θc = 133.85 ± 0.10°. For the sake of comparison, effective, substitution, and average structures are also reported.

The absorption spectrum of F2 in the 780–1020 Å range has been photographed at sufficient resolution to allow a rotational analysis of many bands. A large number of vibrational levels of three ionic states have been observed and their rotational constants determined. Many perturbations in the rotational structure caused by the interaction between the three states have been investigated and the interaction energies determined. The rotational and vibrational structures of a few Rydberg states have also been analyzed in detail but no Rydberg series have been identified. The difficulties in assigning the observed states are discussed. A 1Σu+ – X1Σg+ emission band system has been observed in the 1100 Å region. An analysis of the bands of this system has allowed us to determine the term values and rotational constants of all the vibrational levels of the ground state with ν ≤ 22. The dissociation energy, D0(F2), is found to be greater than 12 830 and is estimated to be 12 920 ± 50 cm−1.

The emission spectrum of the AsS radical, excited in a quartz tube by a 2450 MHz oscillator, was photographed on a high resolution spectrograph from 2450 to 6900 Å. Seven bands around 6000 Å showing clear rotational structures were chosen for the first rotational analysis of the AsS spectrum. The bands were found to arise from a 2Π3/2–2Π3/2 transition. The rotational and vibrational constants of the two states derived from the present work are consistent with the previous vibrational analysis of the A′2Π3/2–X2Π3/2 system. The constants of the upper doublet component of the ground state, X2Π3/2, are ωe = 562.40 cm−1, ωexe = 2.02 cm−1, re = 2.0216 Å; the constants of the A′2Π3/2 state are ΔG′(1/2) = 403.37 cm−1, ν0,0 = 18 621.21 cm−1, re = 2.2500 Å.

Ten bands of the [Formula: see text] system of oxygen have been observed in absorption using longer path lengths than in the earlier work of Herzberg (1953). Rotational analysis of the bands confirms that the A′ 3Δu state is an inverted state as expected from electron-configuration arguments. Rotational assignments are given for the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] sub-bands with ν′ = 2–11; weaker [Formula: see text] sub-bands are identified for ν′ = 5–11. Sub-band origins and rotational constants are given for all the bands. The following derived molecular constants are obtained:[Formula: see text]A comparison of the frequencies of the diffuse bands of oxygen with the sub-band origins of the [Formula: see text] bands shows convincingly that the diffuse bands can be assigned to a weak (O2)2 complex in which one of the O2 molecules is excited to the A′ 3Δu state.

The emission spectrum of Si130Te was excited by microwave discharge (2450 MHz) in a sealed quartz tube. The A1Π–X1Σ+ band system (3100–3900 Å) (1 Å = 10−10 m) photographed under high resolution on a 10.6 m Ebert grating spectrograph. The rotational analysis of 32 bands was carried out, which led to the determination of the accurate vibrational and rotational constants. The rotational structure belonging to ν′ > 9 levels appear to be perturbed.
