The orange system of ScO has been reanalyzed as a 2Π → 2Σ transition. We have observed all the branches which are compatible with the selection rules ΔJ = 0, ± 1. We have not detected the hyperfine structure in the excited state, the coupling case being therefore aβ. The magnetic hyperfine interaction inducing the ground state doubling is the only one which appears; it has been analyzed by other authors who have shown that the coupling case for this state is of the type bβS.The use of an alloy hollow-cathode lamp, cooled with liquid nitrogen, has enabled us to improve the frequency measurements. The values of the constants have been obtained by a method by which, working directly with the Hamiltonian, the introduction of each parameter can be justified. The study of the Λ doubling in 2Π3/2 and 2Π1/2 levels leads us to values of ξ and η very close to those predicted for a pure precession case.

The lifetime of the first excited singlet P level of barium, 6s6p1P1, has been determined from the width of the zero field level crossing, i.e. the Hanle effect, of the 6s6p1P1 –6s21S0, 5535 Å resonance line. The resonance radiation was produced in a hollow cathode lamp and the scattering atoms by an atomic beam. After taking account of coherence narrowing, the lifetime is determined to be 8.37 ± 0.14 × 10−9 s, in good agreement with other recent work.
