Abstract
In order to complete the Atlas of the absorption spectrum of the iodine molecule (Editions C.N.R.S., 1978), the excitation spectrum induced by laser radiation in the 15 780-15 815 cm-1 region was recorded and completely identified. More than 750 transitions (with J values varying from J = 4 to J = 167) belonging to 16 different bands were assigned with the help of molecular constants previously determined
