Predictions beyond 650 GHz should be viewed with caution.
At low values of N, 14N and even more so 31P hyperfine splitting is resolvable. Therefore, a separate prediction with 31P and 14N hyperfine splitting up to 200 GHz is available with separate partition function values.
The dipole moment is from an ab initio calculation by
