Abstract

A total of 7923 transitions previously derived from long pathlength, Fourier transform spectra of pure water vapor (Schermaul et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc. 211 (2002) 169) have been refitted and reanalyzed using a newly calculated variational linelist. Of these, 6600 lines are weaker than 1 × 10 −24 cm/molecule, for which reliable intensities are obtained. These weak lines include 1082 lines, largely due to H 2 16O, which have not been previously observed. A total of 7156 lines were assigned resulting in 329 new energy levels for H 2 16O spread over 32 vibrational levels. Estimates are also given for the band origins of the (022), (140), and (051) vibrational states.
