Earlier ion-beam of the band of the ion have now been supplemented with gas absorption measurements using diode laser sources and a cooled hollow-cathode discharge cell. At least 80 lines have been assigned and fitted using an effective Hamiltonian with a Pade representation of the centrifugal distortion . These fits will be compared with others that include vibrationally off-diagonal interactions explicitly.
