	abstract = {The pure rotational spectra of two isotopic species of LuF and three of LuCl have been measured in the frequency range 5-17 GHz using a cavity pulsed jet Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. The samples were prepared by laser ablation of Lu metal in the presence of SF6 or Cl-2, and stabilized in supersonic jets of Ar. Spectra of molecules in states having v = 0, 1, and 2 have been measured, to produce rotational constants and centrifugal distortion constants, along with hyperfine constants for all the nuclei. Dunham-type. fits for LuCl produced a Born-Oppenheimer breakdown parameter for Cl. Although a theoretical calculation showed that Lu in LuCl should have a significant field shift effect parameter, it could not be determined from the spectrum. Equilibrium internuclear distances, re, and dissociation energies have been evaluated for both molecules. The nuclear quadrupole coupling constants are discussed in terms of the molecular electronic structure.},

	abstract = {The pure rotational spectrum of the X(1)Sigma(+) ground electronic state of platinum monosilicide has been measured for nine isotopomers. For the most abundant isotopomer, (PtSi)-Pt-194-Si-28, the J = 1-0 and the J = 2-1 transitions were recorded up to the fourth vibrationally excited state. The data set obtained enabled a multi-isotopomer fit to a Dunham-type expression and the constants Y-01, Y-02, Y-11, Y-21, and Y-31 were determined. In the process of fitting the data it was necessary to include Born-Oppenheimer breakdown correction terms and the values and significance of these terms are discussed. Strong evidence is presented indicating within the rotational spectrum the presence of field shift effects due to the finite size of the Pt nucleus. The nuclear spin-rotation constant, C-I(Pt-195) is found to be 30.98(157)kHz in the ground vibrational state. Hyperfine structure arising from the Si-29 nucleus was not observed. The measurement of Stark shifts in the rotational spectrum of PtSi has enabled the determination of the dipole moments for the (PtSi)-Pt-194-Si-28 and (PtSi)-Pt-196-Si-28 isotopomers.

	abstract = {Pure rotational spectra have been measured for all the major isotopomers of the lanthanum monohalides, LaF, LaCl, LaBr, and LaI, in their ground and (except for (LaBr)-Br-81) excited vibrational states. The spectra were observed with a cavity pulsed jet Fourier transform microwave spectrometer in the frequency range 5-24 GHz. The molecules were prepared by laser ablation of La metal and allowing the resulting plasma to react with SF6, Cl-2, Br-2, or CH3I precursor in an Ar carrier gas of the pulsed jet. For LaBr this is the first reported spectrum of any kind. Rotational constants, centrifugal distortion constants, nuclear quadrupole coupling constants, and nuclear spin-rotation constants have been determined for all the molecules. Accurate equilibrium (r(e)) internuclear distances have given an indication of where the Born-Oppenheimer approximation is beginning to fail. From the centrifugal distortion constants and vibration-rotation (alpha(e)) constants good estimates of the harmonic vibration frequencies and bond dissociation energies have been obtained. The halogen nuclear quadrupole coupling constants indicate the molecules to be highly ionic. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.},

Rotational constants and quartic and sextic centrifugal distortion constants have been obtained, along with N hyperfine constants. The spectra of Ar-N-14(2) and Ar-N-15(2) indicate equivalence of the nitrogen nuclei, and thus confirm C-2v symmetry for the complexes. The measured transition frequencies and the derived constants have been used to test the best available literature potential-energy surfaces for the Ar-N-2 interaction. For this purpose rotational transition frequencies and expectation values of other properties were calculated and compared with the corresponding values from the microwave experiments. A refined version of one of the surfaces has been generated by inclusion of the microwave results.},
