Notes

1Constants for the lowest of three levels observed in small perturbations of B 1Σ+; A~14. Vibrational numbering unknown, Ω = 3 not observed.
2Constants for the lowest of eleven observed levels, v'= 11 ± 3. ΔG increases to 93.7 for v=18; Bv(v ≤ 18) = 0.787 - 0.0076(v+1/2). For v > 18 both ΔG and Bv decrease rapidly.
3ωexe= -0.297(v+1/2)3 + 0.0040(v+1/2)4 (valid for v ≤ 15).
4αv= 0.00131(v+1/2)2; v ≤ 13.
5ωeze = -0.0018. Observed up to v" =14 in laser-excited fluorescence Tam and Happer, 1976.
6Short extrapolation of vibrational levels in B 1Σ+ to the limit 2D + 2S Ringstrom, 1970. A longer extrapolation of the ground state levels Tam and Happer, 1976 gives 2.08 eV.
7From band heads, 8 ≤ v' ≤ 18.
8Only the 10-0 and 11-0 bands have been rotationally analyzed Bartky, 1966; B10 = 0.587, B11 = 0.586.
9Band origins for the 10-0 and 11-0 bands at 19091.2 and 19261.8 cm-1.
