From an analysis of the high-resolution spectrum of the 3 nu/sub 3/ manifold of SF/sub 6/, the anharmonicity constants were determined to be (in reciprocal centimeters) X/sub 33/ = -1.7426, G/sub 33/ = 0.9188, and T/sub 33/ = -0.24635. By using these constants, one can for the first time to our knowledge accurately predict the energies of the lower-vibrational sublevels of the nu/sub 3/ ladder and determine the pathways for multiple-photon absorption.
