The Band Spectrum of NH

Abstract

IN the course of our investigation of the spectrum of discharges through streaming ammonia, it has been possible to record the 2530 band of NH, described by Hori1, with a Hilger E.l quartz spectrograph, using an improved type of hollow cathode. In addition, we have obtained four weaker bands at 2730, 2835, 2885 and 2980 which appear to be due to the ion NH+.
