Notes

1Normal isotopic mixture.
2Deperturbed constants Coxon, 1974 allowing for the perturbation by the intersecting 0+ state arising from normal atoms (interaction matrix element ~ 360 cm-1), ωeye = -0.0673. The observed vibrational levels Coxon, 1974 are pushed down from their calculated positions by shifts ranging from 42 (for v=2) to 135 (for v=8) cm-1.
3Deperturbed value Coxon, 1974; αe not given. Experimental Bv, Dv, Hv values for 2≤v≤8 in Coxon, 1974.
4RKR potential curve Coxon, 1974.
5Extrapolated from the lowest observed level (v'=2); see Coxon, 1974. Clyne and Coxon, 1967 give 16695 cm-1 based on low-dispersion spectra.
6Several bands of this system observed but not analysed.
