With the technique of Fourier-Transform-Spectroscopy of laser-induced fluorescence it is possible to observe fluorescence series due to singlet and triplet transitions simultaneously as long as the excitation is to a mixed singlet-triplet level. The data gained in such type of spectroscopy have been used to derive precise potential energy curves for the ground X1Σ state of NaCs [1] and for the a3Σ+ state as well. The PECs allow to derive also the long range scattering properties for cold collisions of Na + Cs, like scattering length and Feshbach resonances.
