10B Xzz 5.277
 
14N Xzz - 2.197 - 2.169(4)
 


 







The difference between calculated and experimental 11B nqcc's is 0.005 MHz (0.52 %).  For 14N, the difference is 0.028 MHz (1.3 %).
 
 

In Table 2, the subscripts u,v,w refer to the coordinate axes defined in Table 4.  The u-axis is along the threefold symmetry axis.  The nqcc's given below with these subscripts are those for the H atom in the uv-plane.
