The Difference

A new emission spectrum in the red region (6000–8000 Å) has been recorded from a low pressure hot cathode discharge through carbon disulfide. This band system has been assigned to the A2Πi–X2Σ+ transition of the CS+ molecular ion on the basis of the rotational analysis and comparison with other nine valence-electron molecules. Molecular constants have been obtained by direct least squares fits of the line frequencies to the difference of the eigenvalues of standard 2Π and 2Σ+ matrices.A local perturbation in the A2Πi (ν = 5) state has been studied quantitatively. The position of the perturbing vibrational level in the X2Σ+ state has been determined within a few centimetre−1. This study gave a consistent set of molecular constants for the ground state of CS+ and allowed a partial deperturbation treatment of the observed vibrational levels of the excited A2Πi state.Numerous bands are also observed in the 4000 Å region. A discussion is given concerning the possible assignment of bands at 4059 and 4110 Å to the CS+B2Σ+–A2Πi (0,0) transition.

In a discharge through helium, to which a small trace of benzene vapour is added, a new band system of the type 1Π – 1Σ is found which is shown to be due to the CH+ molecule. The R(0) lines of the 0–0, 1–0, and 2–0 bands of the new system agree exactly with the hitherto unidentified interstellar lines 4232.58, 3957.72, 3745.33 Å, thus proving that CH+ is present in interstellar space. At the same time this observation of the band system in absorption shows that the lower state 1Σ is the ground state of the CH+ molecule. The new bands are closely analogous to the 1II – 1Σ+ BH bands. The analysis of the bands leads to the following vibrational and rotational constants of CH+ in its ground state: [Formula: see text], Be″ = 14.1767, αe″ = 0.4898 cm.−1. The internuclear distance is re″ = 1.1310∙10−8 cm. (for further molecular constants see Table V). From the vibrational levels of the upper 1Π state the heat of dissociation of CH+ can be obtained within fairly narrow limits: D0(CH+) = 3.61 ± 0.22 e.v. From this value the ionization potential of CH is derived to be I(CH) = 11.13 ± 0.22 e.v. The bearing of this value on recent work on ionization and dissociation of polyatomic molecules by electron impacts is briefly discussed.

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.

Rotational analyses have been carried out for the 0ν′20–000 bands of the [Formula: see text] electronic transition of PH2 with ν′2 = 1–8. Approximately 1000 lines have been assigned. The earlier analysis of the 000–000 band has been extended and improved molecular constants obtained. The Hamiltonian used for this band does not fit the excited state levels with [Formula: see text]. Term values are therefore given for all observed levels. Empirical formulas are presented which give approximate fits to the higher levels. Numerous rotational perturbations are found in the excited state. Perturbations up to 0.6 cm−1 are also found in the 000 level of the excited state. These latter perturbations can only be caused by the higher vibrational levels of the ground state.

The A–X system of the SiCl molecule in the region 4500–6400 Å has been excited by an r.f. discharge through a mixture of argon and a trace of SiCl4 vapor, flowing through a quartz tube. Several red degraded and double headed bands with ν′ = 0, 1, 2, and 3 have been observed and the rotational structure of the 0-5, 0-6, 0-7, 0-8, 0-9, 0-10, 1-9, and 1-10 bands has been analyzed. The analysis shows that the bands arise from a 2Σ–2Π transition, 2Π being the ground state of the molecule. The molecular constants have been determined for both the electronic states. The spin coupling constant, Aν, of the X2Π vibrational levels has been found to follow an equation[Formula: see text]

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 strongly perturbed 1Π–X1Σ+ system of C80Se has been observed in the emission spectrum of a high frequency discharge through selenium and carbon traces in a neon atmosphere. The analysis of five bands yields, for the molecular constants of the ground state, the values Be″ = 0.5750 cm−1, [Formula: see text], αe″ = 0.00379 cm−1, re″ = 1.676 Å, ΔG″(1/2) = 1025.64 cm−1, and ΔG″(3/2) = 1015.92 cm−1. The numerous perturbations in the 1Π state prohibit the simple evaluation of the constants of the perturbed state and of the perturbing ones.

If argon mixed with a small amount of NF3 is pumped rapidly through a mild discharge, a green glow is observed downstream from the discharge. This emission has been photographed with a high dispersion spectrograph and found to consist of a strong band with a head at 5 288 Å and a number of weaker bands. A rotational analysis of the bands has shown that they are the b1Σ+–X3Σ− bands of the NF molecule. The constants of the two states have been determined and it is found that for the ground state, ωe = 1 141.37 cm−1 and re = 1.317 3 Å.
