The far-infrared spectrum of deuterated hydrogen sulfide: The ground state rotational constants of D232S,D234S,HD32S,and HD34S

Pure rotation spectra of deuterated samples of hydrogen sulfide have been recorded between 25 and 280 cm^?1 with a Fourier transform spectrometer at an apodized resolution of 0.004 cm^?1. Accurate rotational and centrifugal distortion constants have been derived from the observed line positions for the four isotopic species D₂³²S, D₂³⁴S, HD³²S, and HD³⁴S. Finally, an extensive list of calculated and observed line positions, together with their calculated intensities is presented.
