Notes

1Vibrational constants from Rosen, 1970. Similar results in Patel and Shah, 1970. A different analysis of the D-X system has been suggested Reddy and Rao, 1970, placing the 0-0 band at 26101 cm-1, and resulting in increased upper and lower state vibrational constants.
2Radiative lifetime τ = 16.5 ns Dagdigian, Cruse, et al., 1974.
3missing note
4Vibrationa1 constants recalculated by Dagdigian, Cruse, et al., 1976 from unpublished data of M. M. Patel; for the upper state there is only moderate agreement with the constants in Rosen, 1970.
5From the Ba + I2 chemiluminescence spectrum, see Dickson, Kinney, et al., 1976. Lower bounds were earlier predicted by Krasnov and Karaseva, 1965 and Mims, Lin, et al., 1972.
6Preliminary data, no details.
