Why CO 2 ? Most heterodyne frequency measurements are carried on CO 2 laser transitions A. G. Maki et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc. 167, 211 (1994) A. Amy-Klein, H. Vigué, C. Chardonnet, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 228, 206 (2004) Only one measurement for [10 0 1,02 0 1] I ← 00 0 0 band A. Groh et al., J. Mol. Spectrosc. 146, 161 (1991)
