Abstract
The theory of the fine structure of is made somewhat more complete and fitted to the observed microwave spectrum. This gives Mc/sec for . In addition there is evidence for the effect of higher order terms such as centrifugal distortion on the magnetic interaction constants. Magnetic hyperfine structure has been observed in the spectrum of . The spectrum agrees with that predicted on the basis of a perturbation Hamiltonian , where Mc/sec and Mc/sec. The value of 5/2 for the spin of is confirmed.
