5 | Many rotational perturbations by A' 1Π and a 3Πi Hultin and Lagerqvist, 1951, Field, 1974. |
6 | Directly observed for v' > 9 only; vibrational numbering determined from the perturbations in A 1Σ+ Field, 1974. |
7 | A = -58, from perturbations in A 1Σ+ as are the other constants for this state; see Field, 1974. |
8 | The vibrational constants in the Table are derived from levels with v ≤ 4 Hultin and Lagerqvist, 1951, Lagerqvist, 1954. From band heads in the A-X system (v" ≤ 13) and accounting for head-origin separations, Brewer and Hauge, 1968 have derived ωe= 733.4 Brewer and Hauge, 1968, ωexe= 5.28 Brewer and Hauge, 1968. |
9 | missing note |
10 | The question whether this is the ground state was for long in doubt but the observation by Ault and Andrews, 1975 of a fundamental frequency of 707 cm-1 in a nitrogen matrix seems to settle it: see also Field, 1974 and the theoretical work of Carlson, Kaiser, et al., 1970. For computed 1Σ ground state properties see Yoshimine, 1968. |
11 | From the Ca + ClO2 chemiluminescence spectrum Engelke, Sander, et al., 1976. By contrast, the most recent mass-spectrometric Colin, Goldfinger, et al., 1964, Drowart, Exsteen, et al., 1964 and flame-photometric Kalff and Alkemade, 1973 determinations - corrected, where necessary, for a 1Σ ground state - lead to D00 = 4.04 eV Kalff and Alkemade, 1973. |
