Abstract
Three new electronic transitions of the C2 molecule have been observed in absorption in the region 1300–1450 Å. The system of shortest wavelength is readily identified as a 1Πu–1Σg+ transition; the lower state is the ground state X1Σg+ of the molecule. The other two systems arise by absorption from the low-lying a3Πu state; the upper states are new 3Σg− and 3Δg states. Rotational and vibrational constants of the three new states have been determined. The new states are Rydberg states. Their correlation to the separated atoms is briefly discussed.
