Mini-Symposium: Metal Containing Molecules

Scientific paper

Carbon and magnesium are abundant elements in the interstellar medium, so it is possible that carbon chain molecules containing a magnesium atom may exist in this environment. With this in mind, radical molecules of the form MgC2nH (n = 1,2,3) have been frequent subjects of both experimental and theoretical studies In this presentation we will discuss our high-resolution experiments of the ~A2Π-~X2Σ+ transitions in the isotopologues Mg12C12CD and Mg13C13CH, which complement our earlier investigation of this spectrum in Mg12C12CH^b. The data permit us to determine the lengths of individual bonds to high precision. In addition, we have expanded on previous studies of the ~A2Π-~X2Σ+ transition of Mg12C_4H, conducted at medium resolution. The parameters obtained from our high-resolution spectra are compared with those obtained from theoretical structure calculations.
