Empirical rovibrational energy levels for carbonyl sulphide.

An exhaustive review of the measured rovibrational transitions of the $ ^{16} $ 16 O $ ^{12} $ 12 C $ ^{32} $ 32 S isotopologue of carbonyl sulphide is undertaken. A comprehensive analysis of data from 100 papers is carried out using a consistent set of harmonic oscillator quantum numbers which are recommended for future studies. A corrected compilation of 14,071 OCS transitions is then subjected to a Measured Active Rotational-Vibrational Energy Levels (MARVEL) analysis, resulting in 5729 empirical energy levels. The uncertainties corresponding to these levels are analysed using different procedures; the newly implemented bootstrap method is used to provide final uncertainties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
