Ultraviolet bands of mercury bromide

Abstract

The ultraviolet bands of mercury bromide have been excited in uncondensed discharge and photographed with a quartz Littrow spectrograph. The class II system, lying betweenλ 2900 å to 2700 å, suggested byWieland as due to the triatomic molecule, has been studied in detail and ascribed to the diatomic molecule. The bands in the regionλ 2900 å to 2770å have been analysed into two systems which may form the two components of a2 II2 σ electronic transition with a2 II interval equal to 969·4 cm−1.

Another system most probably due to2 σ2 σ has been observed in the regionλ 2770 to 2720.
