Abstract

A study has been made of all the observable perturbations that occur when the upper state (A2II,v′=v) of the red CN system is crossed by the lower state (X2Σ,v/prime=v+4). The perturbations are found in all branches, in the following order of increasing N"":Q1<R1,P1<R2,P2<Q2. The Q1 crossings have been evaluated from the wellknown1v=7,N=13 through v=1,N=84; the Q2 from v=7,N=46 through v=4,N=84. The dependence of the perturbation parameters on rotation and vibration, and the relations of these to the other molecular constants will be discussed.
