✦ Synopsis

Cross scct~ons fix vrbrntional c-xltntlon (VE) of the X 1 Z: state of LQ wa formation of the cxnted A '$ or B II-I" eiectromc states are reported. For VE through the A ' ~6 state. the cross secttons are nearly constant for forming X ' ?I; (3 < U" < 9) WI electron colhslonnl cwltatlon. For photon pumping (660 < X < 700 nm) of the A ' Zz state, levels U" < 9 arc predommantly formed VE via the t3 'II, state has a lower probabdlty.
