Energy levels of an asymmetric top with a single internal rotor of C3v symmetry

Code:
BELGI-Cs
Output Format:
J Ka Kc m

Details: Each energy level is characterized by the asymmetric-top quantum numbers J, Ka, and Kc, together with the free-rotor quantum number m. When table includes hyperfine levels, the standard quantum number F = J + I is included in the level designation.

The correspondence between the m quantum number used in the .cat file and the vibrational–torsional quantum number vt, as well as the associated symmetry species Γ = A or E of the C3v point group, is summarized in the table below.
