The present fit employs Watson's S-reduction.
With the inclusion of h3 and
d2S, the standard
deviation drops to 16.5 kHz from 24 kHz
reported in (1).
The b-type transitions can not be predicted
with confidence, and they are very weak. Therefore,
their prediction was omitted. Predictions with
calculated uncertainties larger than 0.5 MHz
should be viewed with caution.
The predictions should be sufficient for astronomical
observations toward higher frequencies, whereas some
caution is advised at lower frequencies because
it is not clear if the hyperfine parameters are known
accurately enough.
The dipole moment is derived from an ab initio
calculation from
