A laser spectroscopic study of the XΠg2,AΠu2, and BΣu+2 states of BS2: Renner–Teller, spin-orbit, and K-resonance effects
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The lowest-lying vibronic levels of the X, A, and B states of BS2 have been investigated at high resolution using a combination of room-temperature absorption and supersonic jet data. In both cases, the BS2 radical was prepared in an electric discharge using a precursor gas mixture of BCl3,CS2, and either helium or argon. Extensive absorption spectra were obtained for the 0(0)0 and 2(1)1 bands of the A2pi(u)-X2pi(g) electronic transition in the visible. The A-X 2(1)1 and B2sigma(u)(+)-X2pi(g) 2(1) bands of jet-cooled BS2 were also studied with laser-induced fluorescence techniques. By fitting the 0(0) bands of both electronic transitions simultaneously, we were able to precisely determine the spin-orbit splittings in both the A and X states. Similarly, the 21 bands were fitted in a merged analysis in order to determine the relative separations of the vibronic components of the ground and first excited state bending levels as accurately as possible. Due to a large spin-orbit splitting and small Renner-Teller interaction, the A state bending level shows small but definite K-resonance effects, which were fitted using a full matrix for the four components of upsilon2' = 1. The resulting parameters were used along with previously published data to refine the Renner-Teller analyses in both the A2pi(u), and X2pi(g) electronic states. Where possible, the fitted constants and observed boron isotope splittings have been shown to be in accord with theoretical estimates of their sign and magnitude.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
