This work extends previous observations on potassium hydride in visible region by using this excitation line. Along with the principal fluorescence series for the A 1 ⌺ ϩ →X 1 ⌺ ϩ band system, corresponding to the excitation transition, vЈϭ7, JЈϭ6←vЉϭ0, JЉϭ5, we analyzed a very interesting satellite rotational and vibrational structure induced by collision. The radiative transition probabilities for the A 1 ⌺ ϩ →X 1 ⌺ ϩ band system of KH have been calculated by using hybrid potential energy curves for the X 1 ⌺ ϩ and A 1 ⌺ ϩ states and transition dipole moment function from the radiative lifetimes of different vibrational levels (vЈϭ5Ϫ22 in the A 1 ⌺ ϩ state͒ reported by Giroud and Nedelec. The transition probabilities and lifetimes are in good agreement with the corresponding observed measurements usually within the experimental uncertainty. Collision-induced rotational and vibrational energy transfer in the A 1 ⌺ ϩ state has been investigated. From the rotational and vibrational satellite structure of some bands, cross sections for rotational and vibrational energy transfer have been determined.
