Description
A new linelist for the
A3Π-X3Σ- electronic transition
of NH has been prepared using line positions from the literature and
calculated line intensities. High level ab initio calculations were
performed with the MOLPRO program to obtain the A-X transition dipole
moment function. Potential energy curves and line strengths were
calculated with Le Roy's RKR1 and LEVEL programs. Line intensities and
Einstein A values were calculated with Western's PGOPHER program after
converting the Hund's case (b) output of LEVEL to Hund's case (a) input
needed for PGOPHER. The Herman-Wallis effect is included in the Einstein
A calculations of the bands for the levels with v‧ = 0
- 2 and v″ = 0 - 6 .

Nucleosynthesis and molecular processes in the late stages of Stellar Evolution
Low- to intermediate-mass (M < 8 solar masses, Ms) stars represent the majority of stars in the Cosmos. They finish their lives on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) - just before they form planetary nebulae (PNe) - where they experience complex nucleosynthetic and molecular processes. AGB stars are important contributors to the enrichment of the
