Transition frequencies were reported by
(1) Y. Motoki, F. Isobe, H. Ozeki, and K. Kobayashi, 2014, Astron. Astrophys. 566, Art. No. A28.
Also included in the analysis were most data from
(2) R. Pearson, Jr. and F. J. Lovas, 1977, J. Chem. Phys. 66, 4149.
Data with uncertainties of 100 kHz or more were not merged. The predictions should be accurate enough for all radioastronomical observations. Specifically, predictions with uncertainties larger than 0.3 MHz should be viewed with some caution.
14N hyperfine splitting may matter in astronomical observations. Therefore, a separate hyperfine calculation is provided for J' ≤ 20 and Ka' ≤ 5 up to 1 THz. NOTE: The partition function does take into account the spin multiplicity of the 14N nucleus !
The dipole moment components were derived in (1) from those of the main species reported by
(3) M. Allegrini, J. W. C. Johns, and A. R. W. McKellar, 1979, J. Chem. Phys. 70, 2829.
