Abstract

Calcium monohydride CaH is an astronomical molecule identified in the Sun and other stars by using the visible transitions. We have found many new vibrational levels of the A$^2\Pi$, B/B$'$$^2\Sigma^+$, and 1$^2\Delta$ state using laser induced fluorescence (LIF) from visible to ultraviolet region. \footnote{K.

In this study, we will report our new measurement in the terahertz region. The terahertz spectra were taken by using tunable far-infrared spectrometer at University of Toyama. Calcium monohydride was produced in a quartz cell where Ca vapor was introduced by heating Ca at 750$^\circ$C and DC discharge was applied under H$_2$ and He (or Ar) gas environment. The highest frequencies of the ground state and vibrationally excited state are approximately 3.7 THz and 1.9 THz, respectively.
