Stark effect on emission spectra of carbon monoxide

The electronic emission spectra of the CO molecule in an
applied electric field of 53.8 kilovolts/cm has been observed.
The electric field was determined from the Stark Effect on the H line at 4340Å.
The spectra were produced in the high field region of a
low pressure glow discharge using carbon monoxide gas and water
vapour.
The electric dipole moment of the CO molecule has been
determined for the BlΣ+ state using the P(l) transition of the
Ångstrom ( 0 , 0 ) band. The effect observed is a second order effect
in the B1Σ+ state and it has been deduced that the dipole moment
of the A1π state is very small or zero. The dipole moment of the
B1Σ+ state is 1.61 debye ± 14%. / Science, Faculty of / Physics and Astronomy, Department of / Graduate
