Resumo

Emission spectra indicating transient clusters in a supersonic nitrogen discharge are presented. Select spectral bands are attributed to emission from N2(C 3Πu,v′=0,1)–N2(X 1Σg+). The cluster transitions manifest as blue-degraded, blue-shifted sidebands of the second positive group due to emission from N2(C 3Πu). Results and significance concerning these previously undiscovered nitrogen clusters are discussed.
