Abstract

The 2₂₀ ← 2₂₁ transition of H₂D⁺ was detected by using a dc discharge in a mixture of H₂ and D₂ with a hollow cathode cooled to liquid nitrogen temperature. The assignment was made on the basis of chemistry for production, the observed linewidth, and the lowering of the spectral intensity by the external magnetic field. The transition frequency was determined to be 155 987.185±0.037 MHz.
