The ethyl radical is produced by discharging the $C_{2}H_{5}I$ gas diluted in Ar. We have observed 28 paramagnetic lines in the frequency region from 43680 MHz to 43780 MHz. These lines were observed by using $C_{2}H_{5}Br$, $CH_{3}CH_{2}COCH_{2}CH_{3}$, and $C_{2}H_{6}$ instead of $C_{2}H_{5}I$, although the line intensities were weaker than the $C_{2}H_{5}I$ case. From this evidence, we concluded that the spectral lines observed are those of $C_{2}H_{5}$. The lines show a very complicated pattern of the fine and hyperfine structures of the doublet radical with the nuclear spins of five protons. Therefore measurements of the Zeeman effect were useful to assign the fine and hyperfine components. As a result, the most lines were ascribed to the transitions in the $A^{\prime\prime}_{2}$ level. The rotational constant, the spin-rotation constant, and hyperfine constants are determined by the least-squares fit. en_US dc.format.extent 220249 bytes dc.format.mimetype image/jpeg dc.language.iso English en_US dc.publisher Ohio State University en_US dc.title FOURIER TRANSFORM MILLIMETER-WAVE SPECTROSCOPY OF THE ETHYL RADICAL IN THE ELECTRONIC GROUND STATE en_US dc.type article en_US
