Abstract: | Line positions, intensities, and lower state energies have been calculated for eight hot bands of 16O3 in the 3.3-μm spectral region. The results are based on spectroscopic parameters deduced in recent high-resolution laboratory studies and improved rotational energy levels of the (103), (004), and (310) vibrational states derived by refitting earlier data and experimental (004) energy levels from measurements of the 4ν3 - ν3 hot band. The good quality of the new parameters has been verified through comparisons of line-by-line simulations with high-resolution laboratory spectra. The present work and the results of our analyses of the main bands at 3.6 μm Smith et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc.139, 171-181 (1990)] and 3.3 μm Camy-Peyret et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc.141, 134-144 (1990)] provide a complete set of ozone spectroscopic line parameters covering the 3-μm region. |
