Abstract
Thermally excited emission spectrum of MgI, hitherto known only in flame and absorption sources, has been recorded in the spectral region λλ3668–4220, using a high temperature vacuum graphite tube furnace. The bands were classified into three new band systems in the wavelength regions λλ3905–4002, λλ3834–4079 and λλ3668–3888 along with a number of additional bands in the previously known system A, λλ3955–4220. The constants for the various systems are as follows:
