Microwave spectrum of the ClO radical

Further Investigations of the ClO Rotational Spectrum

“…One can extract a more accurate value of γ , denoted γ * , by correcting γ for the vibrational overlap integral S v,v = = 3/2, v|| = 1/2, v . [7] The fitting parameter γ is related to γ * via the equation γ = S 0,0 γ * + 2B(1 − S 0,0 ), [8] where γ * is the electron spin-rotation constant for the hypothetical S 0,0 ≡ 1 condition. The Dunham potentials yield S 0,0 = 0.99989.…”

“…Rotational spectra of ClO X 1 2 3/2 and X 2 2 1/2 in the v = 0, 1 states have been investigated previously in this laboratory (3)(4)(5) and elsewhere (6)(7)(8). These studies employed an effective Hamiltonian to obtain rotational, fine and hyperfine constants.…”

From High-Resolution Spectroscopy to Chemical Reactions

“…So, we spent a few years without any positive results. However, from 1967 to 1975, wc made slow but steady steps and detected SO (17), CIO (18,19), NS (20), BrO (2I), NCO (22,23), and SF (24). I certainly admit that our progress was very slow, but I must also say that the detection of free radicals was extremely difficult at that time.…”

Laser photoelectron spectroscopy: spectroscopy and dynamics of excited states in small and medium‐sized molecules

“…It is estimated to be located N 31,00Ocm-' above the ground-state, and is quite likely predissociative as well. The location of the B state is inferred from the A doubling observed in the electronic ground-state of the CIO radical [189].…”
