Abstract

Niobium nitride emission systems have been found at 5l37{\AA}, 5582{\AA}, 5740{\AA}, 5840{\AA}, 5860{\AA}, in addition to the already $known^{1,2}$ systems with subbands at 5930{\AA}, 6043{\AA}, and 6192{\AA}. Most of These systems show marked nuclear hyperfine structure of the rotational lines add this has been of assistance in the analysis of all of the systems. Systems of triplet-triplet, singlet-singlet and singlet-triplet are all present and the hyperfine structure also allows assignment of the ground and excited state electron configuration to be made with some confidence.
