Abstract

The relatively compact 7i-6h and 7h-6g inter-Rydberg spectra of H2 were observed for the first lime in a diode laser absorption $experiment.^{1}$ The spectra were assigned using the Long range multipole-polarisation model of high 1 Rydberg states. The model is also used to predict other high i inter-Rydberg spectra with regard to possible astronomical observations; a number of objects e.g. supernova remnants and ``shocks” appear to be prime $candidaies.^{2}$
