Nu sub 1 plus nu sub 3 combination band of SO2

Abstract

The infrared-active vibration-rotation combination band nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 of sulfur dioxide was measured with moderately high spectral resolution. Quantum number identifications of spectral lines were made by comparison with theoretically computed spectra which include the effects of centrifugal distortion. Relative line intensities were also calculated. The band center for nu sub 1 + nu sub 3 was determined to be 2499.60 + or - 0.10/cm
