Rydberg states in azulene

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6360367

An analysis of the Rydberg states of azulene was made. This analysis involved comparison of various types of spectra. The assignment of the d-Rydbergs of azulene in the literature was confirmed, the p-Rydbergs were assigned, and evidence was presented for the intrusion of an s-Rydberg into the S/sub 0/ ..-->.. S/sub 2/ absorption region. The intrusion of the s-Rydberg into the S/sub 0/ ..-->.. S/sub 2/ absorption region was suggested as an explanation for the unique features of this spectral region in azulene.
