Several parameters were evaluated from the main isotopolog. One line with large residual was omitted from the fit.
The calculation may be sufficiently accurate up to 50 GHz; some caution may be advisable at higher frequencies.
1H hyperfine splitting may be resolved at lower frequencies. Therefore, a separate calculation with 1H hyperfine splitting and J" ≤ 4 is available.
Note: The partition function takes now into account the spin-multiplicity of 2 of the H nucleus in the HFS free calculation.
The dipole moment of the main isotopolog was taken from a quantum-chemical calculation by
(2) D. E. Woon, 1996, Astrophys. J. 456, 602.
