Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, Yale UniversityResonance enhanced multiphoton ionization studies in the 275-330 nm region reveal a large number of 2- and 3-photon transitions to previously unknown states. We have analyzed, in detail, four vibrational components of a rotationally resolved electronic transition at 8.2 eV. The vibrational frequency of 1870cmβ1 and a rotational constant of 1.68cmβ1 suggest that the upper state is the lowest Rydberg state (3sΟ) of O2β. The rotational structure is consistent with an electronic designation of 3Ξ 0gβββ for this state
