Abstract
The parameterA D of centrifugal distortion of molecular spin-orbit interaction has been calculated by means of second-order perturbation theory for theA 2Π states of NaKr and NaXe using the spin-orbit operatorA(r) and the interatomic potential as deduced from high-resolution spectroscopic data. The calculated values ofA D are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results corroborating the validity ofA(r). In addition, information on the second-order parameter α D , being experimentally unobservable in molecular doublet states, has been obtained.
