The inversion spectrum of N/sup 14/D/sub 3/ has been investigated between 1500 and 1620 mc/sec. A revised formula for the rotational fine structure was obtained to fit 17 observed lines. Splitting of K = 3 lines into two components was found in good agreement with predicted values. Nitrogen satellites were observed and the values (eQq)/sub N/ =4080 plus or minus 3 kc/ sec and a = 2 plus or minus 2 kc/sec were assigned to the nitrogen quadrupole and maganetic coupling constants, respectively. Hyperfine structure due to removal of the K degeneracy was observed in K = 1 lines. Applying the theory or Hadley, calculated and observed line contours were brought into agreement. Assuming cylindrical symmetry about bonds, the value (eQq)/sub D/ = 200 plus or minus 20 kc/sec was obtained for the deuteron quadrupole coupling constant. 9 value EPSILON = 1.9 plus or minus 0.5 kc/ sec was obtained for the magnetic coupling constant between deuteron spins and molecular rotation.
