Absolute line intensities, vibrational transition moment, and self-broadening coefficients for the 3-0 band of 12C16O

Absolute line intensities, vibrational transition moment, Herman-Wallis factor and self-broadening coefficients for the 3-0 vibration-rotation band of (CO)-C-12-O-16 are determined from absorption Fourier transform spectra with about 6 x 10(-3) cm(-1) unapodized resolution. The range of the CO measurements extends from P(20) at 6254 cm(-1) to R(20) at 6407 cm(-1). The fitted squared transition dipole moment \mu(0)(3)\(2) and Herman-Wallis factor coefficients C and D are respectively equal to (1.6727 +/- 0.0014) x 10(-7) Debye(2), and (1.201 +/- 0.005) x 10(-2) and (1.08 +/- 0.05) x 10(-4) when given with one standard deviation, With the absolute uncertainty, \mu(0)(3)\(2) is equal to (1.67 +/- 0.1) X 10(-7) Debye(2).
