fit-co.tab is a table of H2-induced pressure broadening coefficients for carbon
monoxide, CO. The 6 columns are:
J'
J"
Transition frequency (GHz)
gamma_0 (MHz/Torr)
beta (dimensionless)
where J' and J" are the rotational quantum numbers in the upper and lower
states respectively, and the broadening coefficient, gamma_0 is given at the
reference temperature, T0 = 296 K, with its temperature exponent beta:
gamma = gamma_0 (T/T0)^beta
Note that the data are only to be considered valid in the temperature range
200 <= T <= 3000 K.
These data were published in the article:

water and carbon monoxide transitions by molecular hydrogen at high
temperatures", J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer 116, 79-86 (2013).
