A consideration of the effects of a small Renner interaction, together with the effects of a small spin-orbit interaction, shows that the rotational energy levels of linear triatomic molecules are not entirely analogous to those of diatomic molecules. Detailed expressions for the form of the rotational energies have been obtained. The general results will be presented. en_US dc.format.extent 66153 bytes dc.format.mimetype image/jpeg dc.language.iso English en_US dc.publisher Ohio State University en_US dc.title ROTATIONAL ENERGY LEVELS OF A LINEAR TRIATOMIC MOLECULE IN A $^{2}\Pi$; ELECTRONIC STATE en_US dc.type article en_US
