Notes

1Narrow continuum, maximum at 38260 cm-1.
2The rotational analysis of v=0 by Froslie and Winans, 1947 is probably not correct [see Barrow, Glaser, et al., 1955, p.967-8]. Predissociation for v≥1; the diffuseness is stronger for v=2 than for v=1.
3Constants from Wehrli and Miescher, 1933, slightly different constants in Ashrafunnisa, Rao, et al., 1974.
4Microwave sp. 7
5From thermochemical data and spectroscopic evidence about the 1Π excited state Barrow, 1960; 4.51 eV by flame photometry Bulewicz, Phillips, et al., 1961.
6Adiabatic potential from the photoelectron spectrum Berkowitz and Dehmer, 1972; vertical potential 9.75 eV
7μel(v=0) = 3.79 D Tiemann, Hoeft, et al., 1972. Quadrupole coupling constants Schenk, Tiemann, et al., 1970.
8From D00(InCl) + I.P.(In) - I.P.(InCl).
9The maximum (vertical potential) of the very broad 2Π peak is at 10.85 eV, i.e. the 2Π potential curve in the Franck-Condon region has risen ~ 0.6 eV above its dissociation limit In+(1S) + Cl(2P).
