# #Prepared by Fracoise Piche, and rgm. # #Fri, 24 Jan 1997 # #Plots will get done soon: # #This database is a compilation of the line lists found in Maihara et al, #Oliva & Origlia, and Ramsey et al. Most of the line strengths come #from Maihara et al. with some additions from the other listings. #Note that the different listings give line strengths differing by as #much as a factor of 2 in some cases (but then OH line intensities are #hardly stable with time). The database also includes some molecular #oxygen and nitrogen lines as listed in Maihara et al. The #wavelengths were taken from Abram et al. after verifying their #correspondence with the listed observed wavelengths given in Maihara. #Because the observations were carried on at "low-resolution" #(R <= 1700), we decided to "de-blend" some of the P and R doublets #as they would appear separated at R > 2500. From spin considerations #and empirical observations a ratio of 3:1 in P1:P2 and R1:R2 seems to #be applicable and was used for the "de-blending". Since OH line #intensities are highly variable, any line list should not be used as #more than a guide to the pattern of OH skyline emission. All the #assumptions, approximations inherent in the compilation of the #database should not affect significantly its use in simulations, #instrument performance calculations etc ... as long as you do not #expect two decimal digit precision in the results. # #references # #T.
