Abstract
The accurate ground-state potential energy functions of the beryllium lithium dimer, BeLi, and its cation, BeLi+ , have been determined from ab initio calculations using the multi-reference averaged coupled-pair functional (MR-ACPF) method in conjunction with the correlation-consistent core-valence basis sets up to septuple-zeta quality. The importance of the electron correlation beyond the MR-ACPF level of approximation, scalar relativistic, and adiabatic effects was discussed. For BeLi+ , the similar calculation was performed using the single-reference coupled-cluster method, up to the CCSDTQ level of approximation. The vibration-rotation energy levels of the two species were predicted to near the "spectroscopic" accuracy. Strangely enough, the predicted vibrational term values do not compare well with the recent experimental data for either BeLi or BeLi+ , with discrepancies reaching as much as 20-60 cm-1 for highly excited vibrational levels.

Abstract
LiBe has been the subject of several theoretical investigations and one spectroscopic study. Initially, these efforts were motivated by interest in the intermetallic bond. More recent work has explored the potential for producing LiBe and LiBe+ at ultracold temperatures. In the present study, we have advanced the spectroscopic characterization of several electronic states of LiBe and the ground state of LiBe+. For the neutral molecule, the 12Π, 22Σ+, 32Σ+, and 42Π(3d) states were observed for the first time. Data for the 22Σ+-X2Σ+ transition support a theoretical prediction that this band system is suitable for direct laser cooling. Photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to determine the ionization energy of LiBe and map the low-energy vibrational levels of LiBe+ X1Σ+. Overall, the results validate the predictions of high-level quantum chemistry calculations for both LiBe and LiBe+.

Abstract
Dimers consisting of an alkali metal bound to an alkaline earth metal are of interest from the perspectives of their bonding characteristics and their potential for being laser cooled to ultracold temperatures. There have been experimental and theoretical studies of many of these species, but spectroscopic data for LiMg and the LiMg+ cation are sparse. In this study, rotationally resolved electronic spectra for LiMg are presented. The ground state is confirmed to be X12Σ+ and observations of low-lying electronically excited states are reported for the first time. Reexamination of transitions in the near-UV spectral range indicates that previous band assignments should be revised. Two-color laser excitation techniques were used to determine an ionization energy of 4.7695(4) eV. This value is 1.2 eV below the previously reported experimental estimate. Vibrationally resolved spectra were obtained for LiMg+, yielding molecular constants that were consistent with a substantial strengthening of the bond on ionization.

Abstract
Theoretical investigations for NaMg have been performed on the icMRCI + Q level employing basis set of quintuple-ζ quality with corrections of core-valence correlation and scalar relativistic effect. The geometrical parameters, potential energy curves, vibrational energy levels, spectroscopic constants for the eight Λ-S states, with respect to the lowest four dissociation limits, are investigated. Through the spin-orbit coupling effect, these states split into fourteen Ω states. The permanent dipole moments, transition dipole moments, Einstein emission coefficients, radiative lifetimes and Franck-Condon factors for all Ω states are studied. The feasibility of performing laser cooling of NaMg has also been discussed. Our predictive results are anticipated to serve as guidelines for further researches on NaMg.

Abstract
We investigate the lifetimes of vibrational states of diatomic alkali-alkaline-earth cations to determine their suitability for ultracold experiments where long decoherence time and controllability by an external electric field are desirable. The potential energy and permanent dipole moment curves for the ground electronic states of LiBe+, LiMg+, NaBe+, and NaMg+ are obtained using the coupled cluster with singles doubles and triples and multireference configuration interaction methods in combination with large all-electron cc-pCVQZ and aug-cc-pCV5Z basis sets. The energies and wave functions of all vibrational states are obtained by solving the Schrödinger equation for nuclei with the B-spline basis set method. To predict the lifetimes of vibrational states, the transition dipole moments, as well as the Einstein coefficients describing spontaneous emission, and the stimulated absorption and emission induced by black body radiation are calculated. Surprisingly, in all studied ions, the lifetimes of the highest excited vibrational states are similar to the lifetimes of the ground vibrational states indicating that highly vibrationally excited ions could be useful for the ultracold experiments requiring long decoherence time.

Abstract
We investigate the properties of alkali-alkaline earth diatomic molecules in the lowest Σ(+) states of the doublet and quartet multiplicity by ab initio calculations. In all sixteen cases studied, the permanent electric dipole moment points in opposite directions for the two spin states. This peculiarity can be explained by molecular orbital theory. We further discuss dissociation energies and bond distances. We analyze trends and provide an empirically motivated model for the prediction of the permanent electric dipole moment for combinations of alkali and alkaline earth atoms not studied in this work.

Abstract
We present a thorough theoretical and experimental study of the electronic structure of RbCa. The mixed alkali-alkaline earth molecule RbCa was formed on superfluid helium nanodroplets. Excited states of the molecule in the range of 13 000-23 000 cm-1 were recorded by resonance enhanced multi-photon ionization time-of-flight spectroscopy. The experiment is accompanied by high level ab initio calculations of ground and excited state properties, utilizing a multireference configuration interaction method based on multiconfigurational self consistent field calculations. With this approach the potential energy curves and permanent electric dipole moments of 24 electronic states were calculated. In addition we computed the transition dipole moments for transitions from the ground into excited states. The combination of experiment and theory allowed the assignment of features in the recorded spectrum to the excited [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] states, where the experiment allowed to benchmark the calculation. This is the first experimental work giving insight into the previously unknown RbCa molecule, which offers great prospects in ultracold molecular physics due to its magnetic and electronic dipole moment in the [Formula: see text] ground state.

Abstract
Ab initio techniques have been applied to investigate the electronic structure of the LiYb molecule. The potential energy curves have been computed in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for the ground and 29 low-lying doublet and quartet excited electronic states. Complete active space self-consistent field, multi-reference configuration interaction, and Rayleigh Schrödinger perturbation theory to second order calculations have been utilized to investigate these states. The spectroscopic constants, ωe, Re, Be, …, and the static dipole moment, μ, have been investigated by using the two different techniques of calculation with five different types of basis. The eigenvalues, Ev, the rotational constant, Bv, the centrifugal distortion constant, Dv, and the abscissas of the turning points, Rmin and Rmax, have been calculated by using the canonical functions approach. The comparison between the values of the present work, calculated by different techniques, and those available in the literature for several electronic states shows a very good agreement. Twenty-one new electronic states have been studied here for the first time.

Abstract
In this paper, we systematically investigate the electronic structure for the (2)Σ(+) ground state of the polar alkali-metal-alkaline-earth-metal molecules BaAlk (Alk = Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs). Potential energy curves and permanent dipole moments (PDMs) are determined using power quantum chemistry complete active space self-consistent field and multi-reference configuration interaction methods. Basic spectroscopic constants are derived from ro-vibrational bound state calculation. From the calculations, it is shown that BaK, BaRb, and BaCs molecules have moderate values of PDM at the equilibrium bond distance (BaK:1.62 D, BaRb:3.32 D, and BaCs:4.02 D). Besides, the equilibrium bond length (4.93 Å and 5.19 Å) and dissociation energy (0.1825 eV and 0.1817 eV) for the BaRb and BaCs are also obtained.

Abstract
Electronic open-shell ground-state properties of selected alkali-metal-alkaline-earth-metal polar molecules are investigated. We determine potential energy curves of the (2)Σ(+) ground state at the coupled-cluster singles and doubles with partial triples (CCSD(T)) level of electron correlation. Calculated spectroscopic constants for the isotopes ((23)Na, (39)K, (85)Rb)-((40)Ca, (88)Sr) are compared with available theoretical and experimental results. The variation of the permanent dipole moment (PDM), average dipole polarizability, and polarizability anisotropy with internuclear distance is determined using finite-field perturbation theory at the CCSD(T) level. Owing to moderate PDM (KCa: 1.67 D, RbCa: 1.75 D, KSr: 1.27 D, RbSr: 1.41 D) and large polarizability anisotropy (KCa: 566 a.u., RbCa: 604 a.u., KSr: 574 a.u., RbSr: 615 a.u.), KCa, RbCa, KSr, and RbSr are potential candidates for alignment and orientation in combined intense laser and external static electric fields.

Abstract
We report on the formation of mixed alkali-alkaline earth molecules (LiCa) on helium nanodroplets and present a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study of the ground and excited states of LiCa. Resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization time-of-flight (REMPI-TOF) spectroscopy and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy were used for the experimental investigation of LiCa from 15000 to 25500 cm(-1). The 4(2)Σ(+) and 3(2)Π states show a vibrational structure accompanied by distinct phonon wings, which allows us to determine molecular parameters as well as to study the interaction of the molecule with the helium droplet. Higher excited states (4(2)Π, 5(2)Σ(+), 5(2)Π, and 6(2)Σ(+)) are not vibrationally resolved and vibronic transitions start to overlap. The experimental spectrum is well reproduced by high-level ab initio calculations. By using a multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach, we calculated the 19 lowest lying potential energy curves (PECs) of the LiCa molecule. On the basis of these calculations, we could identify previously unobserved transitions. Our results demonstrate that the helium droplet isolation approach is a powerful method for the characterization of tailor-made alkali-alkaline earth molecules. In this way, important contributions can be made to the search for optimal pathways toward the creation of ultracold alkali-alkaline earth ground state molecules from the corresponding atomic species. Furthermore, a test for PECs calculated by ab initio methods is provided.
