Notes

1UV absorption cross sections Davidovits and Brodhead, 1967; Absorption at higher energies produces fluorescence from Na (3p 2P), maximum efficiency at 50500 cm-1 Earl and Herm, 1974.
2The absorption spectrum of NaBr trapped in inert gas matrices shows band structure at v > 32300 cm-1; under certain conditions as many as 16 peaks have been observed with spacings of approximately 453 and 523 cm-1 in Ar, 529 in Kr, and 472 in N2 Oppenheimer and Berry, 1971.
3Diffuse absorption bands from 28800 to 22600 cm-1; in emission continua and diffuse bands from 31000 to 17000 cm-1.
4From the IR spectrum Rice and Klemperer, 1957; we = 298.49 and wexe = 1.16 have been calculated by Rusk and Gordy, 1962 from the microwave results using Dunham's theory.
5Rot.-vibr. Sp.
6μel[D] = 9.0918 + 0.0531(v + 1/2), v ≤ 2 Hebert, Lovas, et al., 1968. Melendres, 1968, quoted in Miller, Finney, et al., 1973, gives eqQ values and their dependence on v.
7Thermochemical value [ Brewer and Brackett, 1961, Stull and Prophet, 1971; flame photometry, Bulewicz, Phillips, et al., 1961].
8Onset of a broad photoelectron peak with maximum at 8.80 eV, not corrected for thermal population of ground state levels Potts, Williams, et al., 1974. See also Goodman, Allen, et al., 1974.
9From D00(NaBr) + I.P.(Na) - I.P.(NaBr). Potts, Williams, et al., 1974 give 0.49 eV using a corrected value of I.P.(NaBr).
10From band maxima in the photoelectron spectrum Goodman, Allen, et al., 1974, Potts, Williams, et al., 1974.
