The quantum notation used in the "traditional" .par formatted line-by-line lists for each molecule in the HITRAN database was described in detail in the supplementary material of the HITRAN2020 paper [1]. This information is reproduced in the following document, and will be maintained for future updates to the database:

In addition, supplementary XSAMS notation (with more detail) is available for each line if one requests a custom output format to include this information. Details of the XSAMS notation is available on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) website.
