Fragments of many Rydberg series in the absorption spectrum above 60000 cm-1 have been observed and tabulated by Venkateswarlu, 1975; see also Donovan and Robertson, 1972. The intensities in these series are most irregular, possibly because of perturbations by valence states in this region. The Rydberg series are believed to converge to two limits at 81362 and 85996 cm-1 corresponding to the 2Π3/2 and 2Π1/2, v=0 components of the ground state of ICl+.

5Extensive band system.
6Constants of Haranath and Rao, 1957, for the lower state (ω"e= 209.7, ω"ex"e = 1.9), are not in agreement with the work of Clyne and Coxon, 1967 and Cummings and Klemperer, 1974 concerning the A 3Π1 state; see Clyne and Coxon, 1967. This system was also observed in fluorescence following two-step laser excitation D←A←X Barnes, Moeller, et al., 1974. (Note that νe given by Haranath and Rao, 1957 does not match their observed ν00.)
7Diffuse emission bands between 18700 and 21700 cm-1.
8Continuous absorption with maximum at 21000 cm-1. 24
9Potential well arising from the avoided crossing of the "original" B 3Π0+ curve going to I (2P3/2) + Cl (2P1/2) and the repulsive 0+ curve coming from unexcited atoms; see also Child and Bernstein, 1973. 25
10Extrapolated from data with v'= 1,2,3.
11v'=4 is strongly predissociated and gives rise to broad, diffuse absorption bands; no higher levels are observed. At high resolution Olson and Innes, 1976 even v'=3 shows appreciable broadening of the individual lines which rapidly increases above J'=37 and is presumably caused by predissociation into the 0+ state arising from 2P3/2 + 2P3/2; see B' 0+. The non-radiative lifetime varies from ~0.2 ns at low J to 0.02 ns at J=42 Olson and Innes, 1976.
12The f value is estimated to be (f= 0.0026) Olson and Innes, 1976 corresponding to a radiative lifetime of τ= 1 μs Olson and Innes, 1976.
13Vibrational constants from Clyne and Coxon, 1967, whose measurements of the I + Cl chemiluminescence spectrum include bands with v'= 1...18. Cummings and Klemperer, 1974, extrapolating from the data (zero lines) of Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961 for 3 ≤ v' ≤ 19, ν00 = 13655.23 Cummings and Klemperer, 1974. Earlier, from band origins with 7≤v'≤19, Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961, derived ωe = 209.111 Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961, ωexe = 1.886 Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961, ωeye = -0.03558 Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961, ν00 = 13660.29 Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961. See 14.
14 Clyne and Coxon, 1967. Tv values for 38 levels (v≥3) are listed in Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961. There is a strong vibrational perturbation above v=34, but the last few levels are again regular and converge to 17366.0 cm-1.
15Be = B0 = 0.084583, 3≤v≤19 Cummings and Klemperer, 1974, B1 = 0.083995, 3≤v≤19 Cummings and Klemperer, 1974, B2 = 0.083308, 3≤v≤19 Cummings and Klemperer, 1974, have been extrapo1ated by Cummings and Klemperer, 1974, from the Bv values of Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961 for 3≤v≤19. Bv values up to v=40 are tabulated in Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961. The Λ-type doubling constant q [~B(R,P)-B(Q)] increases from +1.32E-5 for v=10 to +11.0E-5 for v=27, but the doubling becomes irregular at higher v values Hulthen, Jarlsater, et al., 1961. The dipole moment in A 3Π1 varies from 2.00 D at v=7 to 0.6 D at v=27 Cummings and Klemperer, 1974; sign opposite to that in X 1Σ+. RKR potential curve Coxon, 1973.
16Fluorescence lifetimes of 110 and 76 μs have been measured. Holleman and Steinfeld, 1971 following laser excitation at 6068 and 5922 Å, respectively.
17Magnetic rotation spectrum Eberhardt, Cheng, et al., 1959; its intensity drops sharply above v'=28. See also Stalder and Eberhardt, 1967. Laser induced fluorescence series in argon matrix Wight, Ault, et al., 1975.
18From the microwave spectrum Herbst and Steinmetz, 1972; in excellent agreement with the much earlier values from the electronic spectrum Curtis and Patkowski, 1934.
19Infrared sp. 21
20Resonance Raman spectrum in argon matrix Wight, Ault, et al., 1975.
21μel(v=0) 1.24 D Herbst and Steinmetz, 1972; dipole derivative 2.1 D/Å Brooks and Crawford, 1955. Electric quadrupole coupling constants for I and Cl in Herbst and Steinmetz, 1972, also iodine spin-rotation constant.
22From the convergence limit of A 3Π1, see 14.
23Average value obtained by photoelectron spectroscopy Potts and Price, 1971, Cornford, 1971 and photoion mass- spectrometry Dibeler, Walker, et al., 1971.
24At least partly due to B←X; see the discussion in Coxon, 1973.
25There are fragments of fairly sharp branches at places corresponding to extrapolated levels of B 3Π0+.
