 Title: Microwave observation of the van der waals complex O2-CO Author(s): Grubbs, G. S., II Contributor(s): Dawes, Richard; Ndengue, Steve Alexandre; Moon, Nicole; Gillcrist, David Joseph; Persinger, Thomas D.; Marshall, Frank E. Subject(s): Clusters/Complexes Abstract: FTMW spectroscopy has long been known to be a powerful tool in characterizing van der Waals complexes. Along with this, advances in microwave technology and computing have made complicated spin-interaction systems much easier to observe and characterize. One such system, O$_2$-CO has been observed for the first time on a CP-FTMW spectrometer operational in the 6-18 GHz region. Preliminary observations and calculations indicate a slipped-parallel structure. High level calculations are ongoing, including the construction of a 4D potential energy surface. Rotational assignments, along with any observed fine structure due to the $^3\Sigma$ ground state of O$_2$ will be discussed.
