The molecules were generated by laser ablation of a solid Zr rod in the presence of 0.05% of O 2 or H 2 S, respectively, in either argon or neon. Rotational spectra of five previously unobserved isotopomers of ZrO in the X 1 ⌺ ϩ state have been measured. Spectra for all five Zr 32 S isotopomers and for the 90 Zr 34 S isotopomer in natural abundance have also been measured; this is the first report of pure rotational transitions for ZrS. Transitions in several excited vibrational states were also measured for the most abundant isotopomers of both species. Atomic mass-dependent Born-Oppenheimer breakdown correction terms were determined by fitting the data obtained for each molecule to a Dunham-like expression. Values for the equilibrium bond lengths of the two species were also calculated from the results of these fits. For both the 91 Zr 32 S and 91 Zr 16 O isotopomers, nuclear hyperfine structure due to the zirconium nucleus was observed and values for eQq 0 ( 91 Zr) and C I ( 91 Zr) have been determined. A rotational transition in the low lying a 3 ⌬ state of ZrS has also been observed.
