Abstract
Rotationally resolved autoionization spectra of the HCO radical in high-Rydberg states built on the (010) core vibrational state have been obtained from selected rovibrational levels of the $3p\pi ^{2}\Pi (010)\Sigma^{+}$ Rydberg state. Simulations of the spectra lead to reliable ionization potentials for detailed rovibrational states of $HCO^{+}$. Data for bending overtones supply information on anharmonic terms in the cation vibrational potential. Rotational structure associated with autoionizing states is analyzed.
