Observed bands are assigned to the $A-X$ vibrational bands $(v``=0-3, v`=5-10)$ and a tentative assignment is given to the 2-photon transition from $X$ to the n=12-13 $[X^{2}{\\Sigma}^{+},v^{+}=1]$ Rydberg states at 216-217 nm. We estimate the IP of SiO to be 11.59(1) eV. The SiO$^{+}$ cation has previously been identified as a molecular candidate amenable to laser control. Our work allows us to identify an efficient method for loading cold SiO$^{+}$ from an ablated sample of SiO into an ion trap via the $(5,0)$ $A-X$ band at 21"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1710.08905","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
