The rotational line intensity, partial band intensity and peak band intensity methods (the latter used in conjunction with computer-generated synthetic spectra) have been used to interpret photoelectric and photographic measurements on the astrophysically important C 2 Swan band system, stably excited in a direct current discharge through C 2 CI 6 + A. All measurements lead to a consistent (within 5% ) expression for the variation of the electronic transition moment with internuclear separation of R e (r) = C (1.00-0.25r) 1.120 < r < 1.488 A . Critical assessment of recently published oscillator strength measurements on the (0,0) band suggest that C is 13.02 x 10 -18 cm e.s.u. ( ± 25 %). A table of absolute band strengths, oscillator strengths and Einstein A coefficients has thus been calculated.
