Abstract
It has been found possible to develop perturbation operators for the centrifugal distortion terms that permit an approximate evaluation to be made of their contribution to the asymmetric rotor energy levels for large values of J. The procedure is based upon the asymptotic (J→∞) similarity between the matrices of the asymmetric rotor and that obtained from Mathieu's differential equation.Keywords
