Calculation of Spectroscopic Parameters for Diatomic Molecules of Atmospheric Interest

Abstract

A complete recalculation of fundamental spectroscopic parameters, in particular transitional frequency and line intensity, has been accomplished for the diatomic molecules carbon monoxide (CO), and the hydrogen halides (HF, HCI, HBr, and HI). The results have been cast into the form of the 1986 edition of the HITRAN molecular database. A primary goal of this effort was to produce parameters sufficient for the high temperature database, HITEMP, so that additional isotopic variants and additional hot and overtone bands for these species are included, also extending the bands to higher rotational levels than previously available. The spectral coverage is from the submillimeter region (pure rotational lines) through the visible (higher overtones). Keywords: Absorption; Line positions; Diatomic; Intensities; Diatomic; Infrared.
