\hspace3em The vibration - rotation spectrum of H79/81Br have been studied using a GaAs semiconductor laser and a titanium sapphire ring laser in the near infrared region. The rotational fine structures up to J=15 could be detected using a 20 m absorption cell. About 100 lines have been assigned in v = 3~<-~0, 5~<-~0 and 6~<-~0 bands with a resolving power of 0.001 cm-1. Spectroscopic constants have been calculated with a least-squares fitting procedure by using the spectroscopic constants of v=0 reported by Lonardo and Fusina ( 1 ). The values in cm-1 are determined as below; \begintabbing 12345 \= G3 - G0 \= = \= 17405.2618(81)12345 \= B3 \= = \= 7.656220(15)12345 \= D3× 104 \= = \= 3.3701(5) \kill \> G3 - G0 \> = \> \hspace0.5pc7405.2618(8) \> B3 \> = \> 7.656220(15) \> D3× 104 \> = \> 3.3701(5)

\endtabbing The numbers given in the upper rows are those of I79Br. The Dunham's coefficients of HBr have also been determined by a joint analysis with the constants reported by the references ( 1, 2 \,).
