Notes

1Large spin doubling, γ0= (-)0.4940. v=0 perturbed for N>30.
2Recalcu1ated using bandheads of the B-X 0-0 and 1-0 sequences only.
3Bv appears to depend irregularly on v; see Effantin, Bacis, et al., 1971.
4From Effantin, Bacis, et al., 1971. The vibrational numbering in Gatterer and Krishnamurty, 1952, differs by -1 in both upper and lower state leading to v00 ~19332 Gatterer and Krishnamurty, 1952.
5Large hyperfine splitting, 4b = 0.663 cm-1 Bacis and Bernard, 1973.
6Thermochemical value (mass-spectrometry) Ames, Walsh, et al., 1967. recalculated Smoes, Coppens, et al., 1969.
