Abstract
Doppler limited laser optogalvanic (LOG) spectra are obtained by irradiating a bromine discharge with a cw dye laser. The discrete bands of the Br2 B-X system appear superimposed on a strong continuum. The LOG spectrum is closely identical with the absorption/emission spectrum of Br2. Some extra bands and assigned in theB-X system are also observed and their vibrational quantum number assignment is given.
