Fine Structure of the Red System of Atmospheric Oxygen Bands.
Abstract
Improved high-dispersion spectrograms of the red bands of atmospheric oxygen have been obtained, with air paths ranging from 30 meters to about 100 km. For unbiended lines of medium intensity the wave lengths have been determined with an accuracy of about one part in seven million, and as a result the molecular constants of the molecules, ~ 016018, and 016017 in the ~; ground state and the ~ excited state, have been evaluated much more precisely than previously. Careful analysis shows a variation in the triplet splitting of the ~ state which is dependent both on the vibrational quantum number and on the mass of the molecule, in addition to the variation due to the change of rotational energy

“20 cm ); counter to the description given for HITRAN2004, the OO positions were not updated in that edition, and the OO upper-state levels were still based on results from 1948 [165].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
