title: Rotational Analysis of the Ground State and the Lowest Fundamentals nu(3), nu(5), and nu(6) of (13)CH(3)D.
abstract: The nu(3), nu(5), and nu(6) fundamental bands of the (13)CH(3)D molecule have been studied with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The spectra and results for the parent species (12)CH(3)D (O. N. Ulenikov, G. A. Onopenko, N. E. Tyabaeva, J. Schroderus, and S. Alanko, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 193, 249-259 (1999)) have been used to assign and analyze about 1900 lines belonging to the (13)CH(3)D isotopic species. About 850 ground state combination differences with DeltaK = 0 were calculated, which allowed us to determine the J-dependent ground state rotational constants. The K-dependent constants as well as those describing the a(1)-a(2) (K = 3) splitting were fixed to the values obtained for the (12)CH(3)D species. The (v(3) = 1), (v(5) = 1), and (v(6) = 1) states were fit simultaneously by including the intervibrational interactions in the Hamiltonian. The rotational energies, the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants, as well as the resonance parameters involving the three states have been determined and discussed.
