Abstract
The three hyperfine components of the $J=1\leftarrow 0$ rotational transition of ${\rm HC^{17}O}^+$ have been resolved in laboratory leading to a value of the quadrupole coupling constant eQq of 4.595 MHz, which is far below the previous estimate of an upper limit of 12 MHz by Guélin et al. (1982a). The ${\rm HC^{17}O}^+$ (1-0) spectrum has been observed toward the "molecular peak"of L1544 and analyzed on the basis of the laboratory hyperfine frequencies.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
