Abstract
Individual spectral line parameters including line positions, strengths, and intensities were generated for the sq Alpha Sigma - sq Chi Pi (0,0) band of OH, applicable to atmospheric and high temperatures. Energy levels and transition frequencies are calculated by numerically diagonalizing the Hamiltonian. Line strengths are calculated using the dipole matrix and eigenvectors derived from energy matrix diagonalization. The line strengths are compared to those calculated from previously published algebraic line strength formulas. Tables of line parameters are presented for 240 K and 4600 K
