The experimental measurements were taken from
(1) H. Gupta, S. Brünken, F. Tamassia, C. A. Gottlieb, M. C. McCarthy, and P. Thaddeus, 2007, Astrophys. J., 655, L57
.
With respect to the Jan. 2007 and Sep. 2008 entries, additional data were considered for the fit. Two FTMW lines were taken from
(2) M. C. McCarthy and P. Thaddeus, 2008, J. Chem. Phys. 129, Art. No. 054314
.
Several submillimeter transitions up to about 500 GHz were published by
(3) T. Amano, 2008, J. Chem. Phys. 129, Art. No. 244305
.
The sextic distortion term H was estimated from HC3N. Predictions should be reliable throughout.
The ab initio dipole moment was taken from
