Notes

1Radiative lifetime τ(v=4) = 50.9 ns Dagdigian, Cruse, et al., 1974.
2Double heads on account of large spin doubling in B 2Σ.
3Radiative lifetime τ(v=3,5) = 41.7 ns Dagdigian, Cruse, et al., 1974.
4Lower bound from a crossed molecular beam experiment Mims, Lin, et al., 1972; in agreement with the theoretical lower limit of Krasnov and Karaseva, 1965.
