Trans-HCOOH hyperfine structure

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Formic acid, HCOOH, is the simplest organic acid and the first that has been identified in the interstellar medium.

Description

Its astrophysical relevance has motivated this spectroscopic study. The aim of this investigation is to provide very accurate rest frequencies for the trans isomer of HCOOH as well as to improve the spectroscopic and hyperfine parameters available in the literature for this molecule.

The Lamb-dip technique has been exploited in order to record the rotational spectrum of trans-HCOOH at sub-Doppler resolution in the millimeter- and submillimeter-wave frequency ranges and, when possible, to resolve the hyperfine structure due to the hydrogen nuclei. THz measurements have been carried out as well. The experimental investigation has been supported by high-level quantum-chemical calculations.
