rotational energy levels.
In the next lecture, we will focus more on
selection rules and intensities.

Willis Flygare
From UIUC Department of Chemistry website
“Willis Flygare earned his bachelor's degree
from St. Olaf College in 1958 and his
doctorate from the University of California at
Berkeley in 1961. He was a professor of
chemistry at Illinois from 1961 until his
death. During that period he developed a
new experimental method involving the
molecular Zeeman effect, and with it, he
measured most of the known molecular
quadrupole moments and magnetic
susceptibility anisotropies. He developed a
highly sensitive microwave spectrometer by
combining molecular beams with Fourier
transform techniques.”

We have learned the rotational energy levels
of molecules in the rigid-rotor approximation.
We have classified rigid rotors into linear
rotors, spherical rotors, symmetric rotors, and
the rest.
We have discussed the energy levels and
their degeneracy of these rotors.
We have learned the Zeeman and Stark
effects.
