We concentrate on two features previously observed experimentally and attributed to tunneling between the two wells [Vatasescu et al 2000 Phys. Rev. A 61 044701]. We show that the molecules obtained are in strongly bound levels (v''=5,6) of the metastable a3Sigma_u+ (6S1/2 + 6S1/2) ground electronic state.15 pages with 7 figuresAtomic PhysicsChemical Physicstext
