Theoretical study of the electronic structure of the BaH molecule

Theoretical calculation of the low laying electronic states of the molecule NaCs with spin-orbit effect

The potential energy curves have been calculated for the 59 lowest electronic states of the molecule NaCs including the spin-orbit effect within the range of 4.5a(0)-20.0a(0) of the internuclear distance R. Using an ab initio method, the calculation is based on a nonempirical pseudopotentials which take into consideration the spin-orbit effect. Gaussian basis sets have been used for both atoms, and the spin-orbit effects have been taken into consideration. The spectroscopic constants have been calculated for 56 electronic states. The components of the spin-orbit splitting have been identified for the states (1,2,4)(3)Pi. The comparison of the present results with those available in the literature shows a very good agreement.

Theoretical calculation of the excited states of the KCs molecule including the spin-orbit interaction

For the molecule KCs the potential energy has been calculated for the 72 lowest molecular states Omega. Using an ab initio method the calculation is based on nonempirical pseudopotentials within the range of 5.0a0-34.0a0 of the internuclear distance R. Gaussian basis sets have been used for both atoms and spin-orbit effects have been taken into account through a semiempirical spin-orbit pseudopotential added to the electrostatic Hamiltonian. The spectroscopic constants for 60 states have been calculated by fitting the calculated energy values to a polynomial in terms of the internuclear distance R. The components of the spin-orbit splitting for (1,2,5,6) 3Pi and (1) 3delta have been identified. The comparison of the present results with those available in the literature shows a very good agreement, while the other results, to the best of our knowledge, are given here for the first time.

Theoretical Study of the Electronic Structure of the KRb Molecule

Upon request of experimentalists now engaged in high-resolution spectroscopic investigations of the molecule KRb, we have determined the potential energy of electronic states (2S+1)Lambda((+)) correlating up to the limit K(5p) + Rb(5s) and of electronic states Omega((+/-)) correlating up to the limit K(4s) + Rb(4d(2)D(3/2)) in a large range of internuclear distance R. For the five states so far observed, the agreement between calculated and experimental molecular constants is good with DeltaR(e) < 0.08 Å, Deltaomega(e) < 6 cm(-1), and DeltaT(e) < 140 cm(-1). Extensive numerical data for energies versus R have been listed in a data base available at http://www.idealibrary.com. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
