The branching ratio of intercombination $A^1\Sigma^+\sim b^3\Pi\to a^3\Sigma^+/X^1\Sigma^+$ transitions in the RbCs molecule: measurements and calculations
We observed the $A^1\Sigma^+\sim b^3\Pi\to a^3\Sigma^+/X^1\Sigma^+$ laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectra of the RbCs molecule excited from the ground $X^1\Sigma^+$ state by the Ti:Sapphire laser. The LIF radiation from the common perturbed levels of the singlet-triplet $A\sim b$ complex was recorded by the Fourier-transform (FT) spectrometer with the instrumental resolution of 0.03~cm$^{-1}$. The relative intensity distribution in the rotationally resolved $A\sim b\to a^3\Sigma^+(v_a)/X^1\Sigma^+(v_X)$ progressions was measured, and their branching ratio was found to be about of 1$\div$5$ \times$10$^{-4}$ in the bound region of the $a^3\Sigma^+$ and $X^1\Sigma^+$ states. The experiment …
High resolution spectroscopy and potential determination of the (3)1Pi state of NaCs.
The (3)(1)Pi state of the NaCs molecule was studied by high resolution Fourier-transform spectroscopy. The (3)(1)Pi--X (1)Sigma(+) laser induced fluorescence was excited by an Ar(+) ion laser or by a single-mode frequency-doubled cw Nd:YAG laser. The presence of argon buffer gas yielded rich rotational relaxation spectra allowing to enlarge the data set for the (3)(1)Pi state term values, as well as to observe Lambda splittings in a wide range of vibrational (v(')) and rotational (J(')) quantum numbers. The data field includes about 820 energy levels of (3)(1)Pi NaCs in the range from v(')=0 to 37 and from J(')=3 to 190, which corresponds to ca. 95% of the potential well depth. Direct fit o…
Experimental study of the long range interactions between a Na (3S) and a Rb (5S) atom
Transitions to near asymptotic levels of the a3Σ+ and the X1Σ+ electronic states in NaRb were recorded by high resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy technique. The hyperfine splitting of the a3Σ+ state levels was analysed. The application of coupled channels calculations is discussed for determination of accurate potential energy curves of the a3Σ+ and the X1Σ+ states capable for reliable description of cold collisions between a Na and a Rb atoms in their ground states.

The branching ratio of intercombination A1Σ+∼b3Π→a3Σ+/X1Σ+transitions in the RbCs molecule: Measurements and calculations
Abstract We observed the A 1 Σ + ∼ b 3 Π → a 3 Σ + / X 1 Σ + laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) of the RbCs molecule excited from the ground X 1 Σ + state by the Ti:Sapphire laser. The LIF spectra from the common perturbed levels of the singlet-triplet A ∼ b complex was recorded by the Fourier-transform (FT) spectrometer with the instrumental resolution of 0.03 cm − 1 . The relative intensity distribution in the rotationally resolved A ∼ b → a 3 Σ + ( v a ) / X 1 Σ + ( v X ) progressions was measured, and their branching ratio was found to be about of 1 ÷ 5 × 10 − 4 in the bound region of the a 3 Σ + and X 1 Σ + states. The experiment was complemented with the scalar- and full-relativistic ca…
The B 1Pi state of NaCs: high resolution laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy and potential construction.
The lowest (1)Pi state of the NaCs molecule, the B(1)(1)Pi state, was studied using a dye laser for inducing fluorescence that was resolved by a high resolution Fourier-transform spectrometer. The presence of argon buffer gas yielded rich rotational relaxation spectra allowing to enlarge the data set for the B(1)(1)Pi state, to obtain Lambda-splittings and to reveal numerous local perturbations. 543 weakly perturbed energy levels for rotational quantum numbers from J(')=5 to 168 and vibrational quantum numbers from v(')=0 to 25, which cover about 87% of the potential well depth, were used for a direct pointwise fit of the potential energy curve applying the inverted perturbation approach me…
