A MOLECULAR-BEAM FOURIER-TRANSFORM MICROWAVE SPECTROMETER IN THE RANGE 26.5 TO 40 GHZ - TESTS OF PERFORMANCE AND ANALYSIS OF THE D-HYPERFINE AND N-14-HYPERFINE STRUCTURE OF METHYLCYANIDE-D(1)

Merke et al., A MOLECULAR-BEAM FOURIER-TRANSFORM MICROWAVE SPECTROMETER IN THE RANGE 26.5 TO 40 GHZ - TESTS OF PERFORMANCE AND ANALYSIS OF THE D-HYPERFINE AND N-14-HYPERFINE STRUCTURE OF METHYLCYANIDE-D(1), Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung.

We present the set-up of a molecular beam Fourier transform microwave
spectrometer in the range from 26.6 to 40 GHz. As a test we investigat
ed the deuterium hyperfine structure of deutero-acetonitrile, DCH2CN.
It is also shown, that the spectrometer can be used to measure highly
resolved rotational spectra of van der Waals complexes.
