Abstract

The possibility of using neon lines excited in a hollow cathode discharge tube for obtaining wavelength calibrations in infrared is explored. The problems involved in making use of these lines for obtaining the relative positions of the rotational lines in vibration rotation bands are discussed. The identifications of the higher order neon lines observed with a 2000-line/in. grating are made available.
