Abstract

"The $B^{1}Pileftarrow X^{1}Sigma^{+}$ and $C^{1}Sigma^{+}leftarrow X^{1}Sigma^{+}$ transitions of CaO, at energies below 30,000 $mathrm{cm^{-1}}$, were previously investigated by Lagerqvistfootnote{A. Lagerqvist, textit{Arkiv F{\""o}r Fysik} textbf{underline{8}}, 83, 1954}. The arc source used in that work yielded spectra at energies above 30,000 $mathrm{cm^{-1}}$ that were too congested for analysis. In the present study we have used jet-cooling of CaO to extend the characterization of the $Bleftarrow X$ and $Cleftarrow X$ band systems up to 35,000 $mathrm{cm^{-1}}$. Analyses of these data and spectroscopic constants will be reported. This work is being carried out in support of two-color photoionization studies of the cation, where the higher energy vibronic levels of the B and C states are used as the first excitation step."
