Chergui, M.Schwentner, N.Boehmer, W.Haensel, R.2006-02-272006-02-272006-02-27198510.1103/PhysRevA.31.527https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/225701Three new progressions consisting of broad bands (full width at half max. .simeq. 130 meV) were obsd. in the absorption spectrum of NO trapped in an Ar matrix. A Wannier model fails to describe these transitions; they are identified as the mol. Rydberg transitions A2S+, C2P, and D2S+-X2P(v',0), blue shifted with respect to their gas-phase positions by .apprx.0.85 eV.
