Rotational studies of bands of the infrared systems (1) 3 → (1) 3 and (1) 3 1 → X 1 + of lanthanum monofluoride were carried out with the aim of characterizing the (1) 3 state, assuming the previous representations of X 1 + and (1) 3 (1-3). The vibrational levels of (1) 3 involved in the analyzed tr

✦ Synopsis
Lifetime measurements of individual rotational levels in excited states of hafnium oxide and hafnium sulfide have been performed using population probing by resonant two-photon ionization in a molecular beam. For the b 3 1 state of HfO rotational levels in the vibrational level v = 0 were found to have lifetimes in the region 650-700 ns. For the D 1 state of HfS rotational level lifetimes in the vibrational levels v = 0 and v = 1 were determined to be around 240 ns. The technique used here provides very accurate results and the uncertainty in the reported values is only about 2%. Possible sources of errors are examined. The absorption oscillator strengths from the ground state are calculated.
