High-resolution studies of the Herzberg band system (C1Σ+ – A1Π]) in the 13C18O molecule
Keyword(s):
Seven bands ((0–0) – (0–6)) belonging to the Herzberg system of 13C18O have been recorded in emission using conventional photographic spectroscopy. For the first time, lines of this system have been recorded at high resolution and identified. After the rotational analysis of bands, the rotational constants of the C1Σ+ (ν = 0) and A1Π (ν = 0–6) states, as well as the vibrational constants of the A1Π state, have been determined. A combined analysis of the bands of the Herzberg and Ångström systems have made it possible to determine the constants of the B1Σ+ state more precisely. Numerous rotational perturbations observed in the A1Π state in this isotopic molecule have been analyzed.
