Abstract
THE methods of interpreting the rotational, vibrational and electronic spectra of diatomic molecules, and the rotational and vibrational spectra of polyatomic molecules, are well established ; but the electronic spectroscopy of polyatomic molecules is still in a relatively undeveloped state. Consequently the first use, within the last-named field, of potentially important working-tools seems worth recording.
