¹⁶O₃ Rotational and Centrifugal Distortion Constants for the (044) State. Band Center of the 4ν₂ + 4ν₃ Vibrational Transition

Abstract

This chapter provides the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants for the (044) state and band center of the 4ν₂ + 4ν₃ vibrational transition of ¹⁶O₃ measured using continuous wave–cavity ring down spectroscopy.

Natural isotopic abundance: 0.992728.

Reference	[2011Bar]
Method	Continous wave – cavity ring down spectroscopy.
Equation	Equation 10 in chapter “Introduction”.
Statistical errors	One standard deviation in units of the least significant full size digits.
Remarks	All values are given in cm−1. The band does not show strong resonance perturbation, and the state (044) is considered as an isolated one. Band intensity and dipole transition moment operator values are given in chapter “16O3 Dipole Transition Moment Operator Constants and Integrated Intensity for the 4ν2 + 4ν3 B-Type Band”. The isotopic composition of the elements used for the calculation of the natural isotopic abundance is taken from [2007Coh].
Abbreviation	SE: Statistical error.
