90. 1Π excited state than the value used in our calculations.
91. Collisional relaxation studies are a good example: since the first vibrational excitation populates a single rotational state, a very short delay between the pump and jump pulses combined with a low sample pressure would result in vibrational spectra consisting of a single rotational line in every branch of the spectrum. As the delay is increased, collisional relaxation populates the other rotational states in (0,0,4) and more lines appear in the spectra. Although we observed these effects in our experiment, in this work we decided to focus our efforts in the sdpectroscopic part.
