ABSTRACT
Line positions and intensities belonging to the vibrational system 2nu(2)/nu(4) of ammonia (14)NH(3) are measured and analyzed between 1200 and 2200 cm(-1) in order to improve the molecular database. For this, laboratory spectra are obtained at 0.006 and 0.011 cm(-1) unapodized resolution and with 4% precisions for the intensities using Fourier transform spectrometers located at the Kitt Peak National Observatory and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The observed data contain transitions of the nu(4) fundamental band near 1626.276(1) and 1627.375(2) cm(-1) (for s and a inversion upper states, respectively) and the 2nu(2) overtone band near 1597.470(3) and 1882.179(5) cm(-1) (for s and a inversion states, respectively). A total of 2345 lines with J'
