Abstract
The $\nu_{2}$ bending mode of the $AsH_{2}$ radical in the $\tilde{X}^{2}B_{1}$ state has been investigated using $CO_{2}$ laser magnetic resonance spectroscopy. A large number of resonances have been observed in the $920-1070 cm^{-1}$ region. Many resonances show the characteristic quarters of resolved $^{75}As (T=3/2)$ hyperline structure. The $AsH_{2}$ radical was produced in a discharge flow system by adding to arsine $(AsH_{3})$ the products of a microwave discharge of $H_{2}$ in Ar. The current evidence for the active species as $AsH_{2}$ is mainly chemical. The results of the spectrum assignment and parameter determination, currently underway, should confirm the identity.
