Abstract
High-resolution spectra of H2O, HDO, and D2O suspended in solid Ar have been observed in the range 4°—27°K. Evidence has been obtained for the rotation of these species in Ar matrices. The majority of the observed lines are found to be in very good agreement with low-J transitions of the gas spectra, allowing for a small matrix shift. Transitions arising from both spin modifications of H2O and D2O have been observed and the observed intensities suggest that a large degree of spin equilibration has taken place. A small contamination of O2 may be responsible for this. A perturbation of one of the rotational levels of ν2—H2O is discussed.
