Abstract
Four electron paramagnetic resonance transitions of the SO free radical generated in a gas‐phase discharge of SO2 have been observed and assigned. The lines result from electric‐dipole transitions between the Zeeman levels of the K = 1, J = 1 → K = 2, J = 1 states of the 3Σ− electronic ground state of 32S16O and 34S16O. The rotational constant B0 and the splitting constants λ and μ have been obtained from the microwave investigation of Powell and Lide. The g values of the electron spin, the orbital, and the rotational magnetic moments of 32S16O as determined from least‐squares fitting of the EPR data are gs = 2.00197, gl = 0.00371, and gr = 0.00019. The frequencies of the corresponding transitions for the less abundant species, 34S16O, have been calculated from the isotope corrected 32S16O parameters. The relative intensities and linewidths of the SO spectrum are discussed. The linewidth is attributed to the collision broadening of SO by SO2.Keywords
