A PICTORIAL VIEW OF RESEARCH ON DIATOMIC MOLECULAR SPECTRA

Abstract

Publications related to analyses of diatomic molecular spectra have been compiled for the years between 1960--73 (as of March). The periodical table is used to give a pictorial account of papers produced in that period and corresponding to ten leading compounds. In the same tables spectra of diatomics known before 1960 are also indicated to complete an all-time graphical review. Some statistics and remarks for each group will be pointed out.
