Abstract
The observation and a preliminary analysis of about twenty ro-vibrational transitions of the $\nu_{3}$ fundamental of the $CD_{3}$ radical was reported at this meeting last $year^{1}$. We present here analysis of sixty two infrared absorption lines in the $\nu_{3}$ fundamental band. The main molecular parameters determined in the present work are the band origin $\nu_{0}= 2381.0886(40). B^{\prime}=4.758737(40), C^{\prime}= 2.373297(34),(\zeta C),= 0.476278(72), q, = 0.00376(59)$, all in $cm^{1}$ with one standard deviation in parenthesis. The derived molecular parameters were compared with those for the $CH_{3}$ radical $\nu_{3} = I$ level determined $previously^{2}$. A relatively weak set of transitions were also observed in the vicinity of the $\nu_{3}$ fundamental. These transitions were tentatively assigned to the $\nu_{2} +\nu_{3} \leftarrow \nu_{2}$ infrared transition. Results for both the $\nu_{3}$ and $\nu_{2}+\nu_{3}\leftarrow \nu_{2}$ bands will be discussed.
