title: Experimental investigation of the 85Rb2 a 3Sigma(u)+ triplet ground state: multiparameter Morse long range potential analysis.
abstract: Using perturbation facilitated infrared-infrared double resonance excitation of the (85)Rb(2) molecule, we have observed spectrally resolved fluorescence to the a (3)Sigma(u)(+) state. We have analyzed the rovibrational energy level structure of the (85)Rb(2) a (3)Sigma(u)(+) state and derived a multiparameter Morse Long Range (MLR) potential and molecular constants for this state, which can be used to predict term values without needing to solve the radial Schrödinger equation.
