Abstract
The $B\rightarrow X$ (4200-5100 {\AA}. C-X (2700-2950 {\AA}. and D$\rightarrow$X (2480-2700 {\AA}) transitions of HgBr have been photographed and analyzed for isotopically pure ${^{200}}Hg^{79}Hr$ and $^{200}Hg^{81}Br$. The analyses yield improved vibrational constants for all four states and rotational constants for the B and X states. Optional spectroscopic parameters are obtained for all four states from direct, simultaneous fits of all three transitions to the standard polynomials in ($\nu+1/2$) and to near-dissociation $expansions.^{1,2}$ In addition to the above-mentioned systems, we have recorded and analyzed by computer simulation the B $\rightarrow$ A transition $5500-8000 \dot A$.) Efforts are currently underway to (1) measure collisional line broadening in the B$\rightarrow$X system using a Fabry-Perot interferometer, and (2) determine the R-dependence of the B$\rightarrow$X transition strength function from analysis of relative intensity data.${^{*}}$ Work supported by the Office of Naval Research. ${^{1}}$ R.
