Calculated Vibration-Rotation Intensities and Line Positions for Ground State Nitric Oxide.

Abstract

A group of tables is presented listing accurate theoretical line positions and absolute emission intensities for individual multiplet-vibration-rotation transitions in the ground state of nitric oxide. The data covers both intramultiplet and intermultiplet (satellite band) transitions for vibrational levels up to v = 20, and total angular momentum states up to J = 33.5 in the fundamental (delta v = 1) and first overtone (delta v = 2) manifolds. The calculated intensities were obtained with an accurate representation of the electronic dipole moment function of nitric oxide and wavefunctions generated from a numerical RKR potential taking full account of rotation-vibration coupling and spin-uncoupling. In addition to the detailed line emission data, thermally averaged vibrational band intensities are provided for application to low resolution studies. (Author)
