ANALYSIS OF HIGH-RESOLUTION MEASUREMENTS OF THE NU(1)-NU(3) BAND OF OZONE - CORIOLIS INTERACTIONS WITH THE 6-NU(3) AND 3-NU(1)+NU(2)+2-NU(3) BANDS(5)

The nu(1) + 5 nu(3) band of ozone, which occurs in the 5780 cm(-1) reg ion, has been observed for the first time using a Fourier transform sp ectrometer, operating at 0.008 cm(-1) resolution and with a large path length x pressure product (3216 cm x 28.3 Torr). The assignment of rot ation-vibration transitions has been made for J up to 39 and K-a up to 12, respectively. As the levels corresponding to K-a = 6 were perturb ed, it has been necessary to account for the Coriolis coupling with th e (312) state. It has also been necessary to include the Coriolis coup ling with the (006) state. In this way, we have obtained a root-mean s quare deviation of 2.1 x 10(-3) cm(-1), close to the experimental unce rtainty. Rovibrational line intensities of the nu(1) + 5 nu(3) band we re measured and the value of the principal transition moment has been recovered. Finally, a complete list of line positions and intensities was calculated (with cutoff of 3 x 10(-26) cm(-1) molecule(-1) cm(-2)) , leading to the integrated band intensity of S-v = 4.581 x 10(-23) cm (-1) molecule(-1) cm(-2) at 296 K.
