Abstract

We report the complete measurement and analysis of the perpendicular kn=±21←00 (D2O)3 torsional band with an origin of 2940.9376(3) GHz. The upper state is the highest torsional state yet observed. All previously known torsional transitions were included in a new global analysis of the six observed torsional bands, using the effective Hamiltonians derived by van der Avoid et al.
