The CH radical is important as a constituent of stellar atmospheres and as an object for theoretical studies. The present paper is concerned with a molecular beam laser induced fluorescence (LIF) experiment and the first resolution of the hyperfine structure in the C 2 Sigma + state, taking into account also the acquisition of accurate values for the rho-doubling and rotational constants. An anomalous intensity distribution in the LIF signals between transitions to upper (F1) and lower (F2) rho-doublet states in C 2 Sigma + is observed. The spectroscopy of the C 2 Sigma + state is considered along with its lifetime. The investigation shows that the combination of the tunable frequency doubled narrow band laser and the molecular beam technique provides also a powerful approach for the determination of lifetimes of strongly predissociated excited states.
