Scientific paper

OUR recent work on the spectroscopy of the TaO molecule trapped in solid neon at 4° K has helped in the establishment of a 2Δr ground state for that molecule1. The unique advantage of absorption studies at 4° K is that all transitions occur from the zero-point vibrational level of the lowest electronic state. Because of the long-held view that TiO and ZrO both have 3Δr ground states2 and because of their relative importance in stellar spectra, a similar examination has been made of these molecules. We have thereby established that ZrO has a singlet ground state and conclude from theory that it is probably 1Σ+.
