Zeeman Tuning Rate for Q Branch Transitions in the v3 Band of NO2Zeeman tuning rates have bee a measured for Q branch transitions in the v3 band of NO2(approx.1610/cm) for magnetic fields of up to 564 Gauss. The average measured tuning rate is 0.1815(53) x 10(exp -3)/cm/Gauss with no dependence on Ka within the approx. equal to 3% standard deviation. Despite significant ,pin-rotation interaction between several of the observed levels the result agrees with the simple linear model for Honda case (be molecules (tuning rate = 2muogs = 0.18696 x 10(exp -3)/cm/Gauss) which neglects the spin-rotation interaction between different J states. The Zeeman effect is analyzed in a full treatment of the Hamiltonian, including spin-rotation interaction, in order to account for the agreement with 2muogs and to explore the onset of spin-rotation effects in the spectra as the magnetic field is increased.
