The Perturbation between the G(1)Pi(g) and 2(1)Delta(g) States of (7)Li(2)

We have observed the rotational levels in the v = 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8 vibrational manifolds of the 2(1)Delta(g) state of (7)Li(2) via the A(1)Sigma(+)(u) intermediate levels by DeltaLambda = 2 transitions. This violation of the DeltaLambda = 0, +/-1 selection rule is due to the interaction with the G(1)Pi(g) state. Band-by-band deperturbations of the G(1)Pi(g) approximately 2(1)Delta(g) (v(Pi), v(Delta)) = (11, 2), (12, 3), (15, 5), (16, 6), (18, 7), and (19, 8) bands have been performed. Deperturbed molecular constants and rotational-electronic interaction parameters are reported here. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
