ON THE SPECTRUM OF THE P2 MOLECULE

Abstract
Five bands of the ultra-violet system of P2, with low v′ and v″ values, have been measured under large dispersion and analysed. They serve to determine much more accurately than heretofore possible the rotational constants Be″ and αe″, the moment of inertia Ie″, and the internuclear distance re″ of the P2 molecule in the ground state. The following values have been found: Be″ = 0.3031 cm.−1, αe″ = 0.00138 cm.−1, Ie″ = 92.36∙10−40gm.-cm.2, re″ = 1.895 10−8 cm.
