Fourier transform spectroscopy, relativistic electronic structure calculation, and coupled-channel deperturbation analysis of the fully mixed $A^1\Sigma^+_u$ and $b^3\Pi_u$ states of Cs$_2$

The 4503 rovibronic term values belonging to the mutually perturbed $A^1\Sigma^+_u$ and $b^3\Pi_u$ states of Cs$_2$ were extracted from laser induced fluorescence (LIF) $A\sim b\rightarrow X^1\Sigma^+_g$ Fourier transform spectra with the 0.01 cm$^{-1}$ uncertainty. The experimental term values of the $A^1\Sigma^+_u\sim b^3\Pi_u$ complex covering the rotational levels $J\in [4,395]$ in the excitation energy range $[9655,13630]$ cm$^{-1}$ were involved into coupled-channel (CC) deperturbation analysis. The deperturbation model takes explicitly into account spin-orbit coupling of the $A^1\Sigma^+_u(A0^+_u)$ and $b^3\Pi^+_{0_u}(b0^+_u)$ states as well as spin-rotational interaction between the…
