Popis:	The oscillatory structures of vuv emission continua originating from the lowest excited states 1 u ( 3 P 2 ) have been observed for Ne 2 , Ar 2 and Kr 2 in the glow discharges with currents of the order of µA at pressures of a few Torr. From these structures the potential curves of the 1 u ( 3 P 2 ) states have been calculated for Ne 2 and Ar 2 in the region of internuclear distances up to near the well minimum by making use of the method by Smith based on the WKB stationary phase approximation. Although the present calculation depends on the assumed ground state potential curves, it has been found that Cohen's calculation of the Ne 2 1 u ( 3 P 2 ) potential falls far from our results, but Saxon's calculation of the Ar 2 1 u ( 3 P 2 ) potential is in good agreement with our results.
