Abstract
Chlorine nitrate is a molecule of intermediate size whose infrared spectrum is partially resolvable in the Doppler limit. Its Doppler-limited pure rotational spectrum in the microwave is correspondingly dense, not only because of its relatively small rotational constants, but also because it has a number of relatively low-lying vibrational modes. We have recorded this complex spectrum in the microwave spectral region with a FASSST spectrometer. We will report analysis of both ground and excited vibrational states in both the $^{35}Cl$ and $^{37}Cl$ species.
