Abstract
We have performed quantum simulations of the 23Π g −13Σ u + bound-free transition. Assuming Boltzmann and different non-Boltzmann distributions for the population in the 23Π g state, we have calculated the corresponding spectral shapes. The results show that the shape of the emission spectrum can be used to obtain information about the population distribution within rovibration levels of the upper state. Comparison with several experiments is presented.
