 Title: ANALYSIS OF THE $C^{2} \Pi - X^{2} \Sigma^{+}$ BAND OF AIO. Creators: Towle, Jonathan P. Issue Date: 1998 Publisher: Ohio State University Abstract: In recent years the $C^{2}\Pi$ state of AIO has been the subject of some controversy. In 1994 Towle $et al.^{a}$ published the results and analysis of a high resolution study of the $C^{2}\Pi - X^{2} \Sigma^{+} (0,0)$ band. Later in 1994 Towle $et al.^{b}$ published a reanalysis of that data in combination more data from Singh and $Sakena^{c}$ The reanalysis yielded molecular constants for the $C^{2}\Pi$ state that were in agreement with those published $in^{a}$ to within experimental accuracy. Ito $et al.^{d}$ have reanalyzed the data $from^{c}$ and published a set of molecular constants that are markedly different from those of Towle $et al.^{a}$ These differences will be discussed.
