Dipole moment and rotational spectrum of the HD molecule

The permanent dipole moment of the HD molecule has been calculated in first-order perturbation theory using adiabatic wave functions of the hydrogen molecule. The result agrees well with well-known calculations based on nonadiabatic wave functions. The possibility of observing the purely rotational spectrum of the molecule is substantiated.
