description

International audience; The hyperfine structure in the rotational spectra of six isotopic species of bromofluoromethane, namely CH2{79}BrF, CH2{81}BrF, CDH{79}BrF, CDH{81}BrF, CD2{79}BrF, and CD2{81}BrF, has been investigated using the Lamb-dip technique in the submillimeter-wave frequency range. Measurements as well as assignment procedures have been supported by high-level quantum-chemical calculations of the hyperfine parameters at the coupled-cluster level. For all species, the accuracy of the determined rotational and centrifugal distortion constants as well as the bromine quadrupole-coupling constants have been improved with respect to available literature data, whereas the full bromine quadrupole-coupling tensor for the monodeuterated species and the bromine spin-rotation constants for all isotopologues have been determined for the first time.
