Notes.

(a)

Rotational constant.

(b)

Dipole moment.

(c)

For C15N, the quantum numbers are NJF with J = N + S and F = J + I, where S is the electronic spin and I = 1/2 is the nuclear spin of 15N. For 13CN, we follow the CDMS convention (which differs from Bogey et al. 1984), where the quantum numbers are NJF1F with F1 = J + I1, F = F1 + I2 where I1 = 1/2 and I2 are the nuclear spin of 13C and 14N respectively.

(d)

For resolved hyperfine structures, frequency of a given hyperfine component.

(e)

Einstein coefficient for spontaneous decay.

(f)

Total degeneracy of the upper level.
