The absorption spectrum of the Ag2 molecule

The high dispersion absorption spectrum of the Ag2 molecule has been photographed in the ∼5300–1500-Å region. Observations include the previously reported A ← X, B ← X, C ← X, D ← X, and E ← X transitions and a new H ← X transition which occurs in the vacuum ultraviolet. Extensive spectral blending...

Summary:The high dispersion absorption spectrum of the Ag2 molecule has been photographed in the ∼5300–1500-Å region. Observations include the previously reported A ← X, B ← X, C ← X, D ← X, and E ← X transitions and a new H ← X transition which occurs in the vacuum ultraviolet. Extensive spectral blending precluded detailed rotational analyses, but the band structures are consistent with ΔΩ = 0 and ΔΩ≥1 for D-X and C-X, respectively. The H state is perturbed and probably predissociated. The following molecular constants (in cm−1) were obtained from fitting bandhead data to the usual expressions: StateTeωcXωtX0.0192.00.58B35 838.6151.80.87C37 631.6171.00.84D39 014.5168.21.20E40 159.9146.11.58H58 273.1165.92.46
