RESUMO
The electronic spectra of CuCl were observed in the 18 000 cm(-1) to 25 000 cm(-1) spectral region using a Bruker IFS 120 HR Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) and with the FTS associated with the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope at Kitt Peak. On the basis of ab initio calculations, the labels for the electronic states were revised, and the a(3)Sigma(+)(1)-X(1)Sigma(+) 0-0 band, the b(3)Pi(0)-X(1)Sigma(+) 0-0, 1-0, and 0-1 bands, the b(3)Pi(1)-X(1)Sigma(+) 0-0, 1-0, and 0-1 bands, the A(1)Pi-X(1)Sigma(+) 0-0, 1-0, and 0-2 bands, and the B(1)Sigma(+)-X(1)Sigma(+) 0-0 and 1-0 bands were measured. Improved spectroscopic constants were obtained for the excited and ground states. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
RESUMO
A new polarization modulation Zeeman method combined with high resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy is described. It selectively detects the paramagnetic species produced in a plasma under a constant magnetic field. The polarizing optics is convenient and easily covers wide spectral ranges. NO absorption and N(2)O, NO emission spectra are reported. With a magnetic field of the order of 560 G and a 40-cm long discharge tube, the P and R lines of the 1-0 band of NO around 5 microm are observed up to J = 28.5 whereas the much more intense N(2)O lines are not detected. Unexplained line shapes of the first Q(2) lines of NO are reported. A comparison with a recent frequency modulation Zeeman method coupled with high resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy is given.
