Identification of interstellar methanol lines

Abstract

The extended internal axis method Hamiltonian of Herbst et al. (1984) was used to study the rotational spectrum of methanol out to high values of the rotational quantum number J. Laboratory data for 783 lines of (C-12)H3OH from the lowest three torsional levels out to a rotational quantum number of J = 22 were fitted to an rms deviation of 4.40 MHz. For (C-13)H3OH, 455 lines out to J = 22 were fitted to an rms of 2.28 MHz.
