Abstract

A high-resolution molecular spectrum denotes here a spectrum which exhibits well-resolved rotational structures or it corresponds to the rotational transition of a molecule (i.e., the pure rotational spectrum). Although direct transitions among fine and/or hyperfme structure component levels are rarely discussed, they are certainly classified as high-resolution spectra.
