Abstract
The visible system of nitrogen dioxide is notoriously $complex.^{1}$ Low resolution absorption spectra clearly shows a sudden increase in intensity and in complexity beginning at about 550 nm. We report our investigation of the 550 nm region of $NO_{2}$ cooled in a supersonic expansion, and we discuss the relationship of this change to the electronic states of the molecule. $^{1}$D.K.
