Abstract
A new emission band system of S2 has been obtained in the region λ 3050–λ 2670 when sulphur is excited in a 30 mc/S. high frequency discharge from a 1/2 kW oscillator. The bands appear single sharp headed and are degraded towards red. Analysis of these new bands as belonging to a single system has led to the following vibrational formula.ν=36624·7+428·5(v′+1/2)−3·45(v′+1/2)2 −699·2(v″+1/2)+3·2(v″+1/2)2.
This system disignated as (b−x) is tentatively assigned to the electronic transition1∑ +u −1∑ +g . The1∑ +g (x) state is found as the common lower state of three of the far ultraviolet systems of S2 recently reported byTanaka andOgawa.
