Abstract
The non-adiabatic electronic matrix elements, LΠΣ(R), that arise from the spin-conserving electron-rotational interactions between all mΣ+ and mΠ states, where multiplicity m = 1, 3, converging to the lowest three dissociation limits of Li-containing alkali diatomics, LiM (M = Na, K, Rb), were calculated ab initio up to large internuclear distances, R. The required electronic wavefunctions were obtained within the framework of the multi-reference configuration interaction treatment of the two-valence-electron problem constructed using small-core scalar-relativistic effective core potentials and l-independent core-polarization potentials. A least squares analysis of the ab initio functions at large internuclear distances in conjunction with long-range perturbation theory (LRPT) revealed three different asymptotic behaviors of the LΠΣ(R → +∞)-functions: const. + β[n]/Rn, characterized by n = -1, 3 and 6. The asymptotic coefficients β[n], extracted from the point-wise ab initio data, were found to be in agreement with their LRPT counterparts, which were evaluated analytically using the relevant atomic parameters. The mass dependence of the LΠΣ matrix elements was investigated analytically and numerically. To confirm the reliability of the LΠΣ(R)-functions and interatomic potentials at small and intermediate distances, the empirical q-factors available for the D1Π-states of all LiM molecules studied were compared with their theoretical counterparts derived from the present ab initio data.

Abstract
In this study, we analyzed the light absorption by diatomic molecules or colliding atoms in a spectral region dominated by an avoided crossing of adiabatic state levels or crossing of the corresponding diabatic state levels. Our attention was focused on the low-resolution spectrum at a higher gas temperature under local thermodynamic equilibrium conditions. The absorption measurements of mixed vapors of potassium (≈80%) and cesium (≈20%) were made in the temperature range of 542–715 K and the infrared spectral range 900–1250 nm. In this area, the main spectral contributions were the broad A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) − X 1 Σ ( g ) + ( 0 ( g ) + ) bands of K2, Cs2, and KCs molecules. There was a crossing of A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) and b 3 Π ( u ) ( 0 ( u ) + ) state potential curves and the coupling of this state was due to the matrix element ⟨ A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) | H s o | b 3 Π ( u ) ( 0 ( u ) + ) ⟩ of the spin–orbit interaction. Using data for relevant electronic potential curves and transition dipole moments existing in the literature, the spectra of the A 1 Σ ( u ) + ( 0 ( u ) + ) − X 1 Σ ( g ) + ( 0 ( g ) + ) molecular bands of K2, Cs2, and KCs molecules were calculated. Full quantum mechanical and semi-quantum coupled channel calculations were done and compared with their non-coherent adiabatic or diabatic approximations. Through the comparison of our theoretical and experimental spectra, we identified all observed spectral features and determined the atoms’ number density and gas temperature.

Abstract
Fourier-transform A(1)Σ(+) - b(3)Π → X(1)Σ(+) laser-induced fluorescence spectra were recorded for the natural mixture of (39,41)K(85,87)Rb isotopologues produced in a heatpipe oven. Overall 4200 rovibronic term values of the spin-orbit coupled A(1)Σ(+) and b(3)Π states were determined with an uncertainty of about 0.01 cm(-1) in the energy range [10 850, 14 200] cm(-1) covering rotational quantum numbers J' ∈ [3, 280]. Direct deperturbation analysis of the A ∼ b complex performed within the framework of the A(1)Σ(+) ∼ b(3)ΠΩ=0,1,2 coupled-channel approach reproduced experimental data with a standard deviation of 0.004 cm(-1). Initial parameters of the internuclear potentials and spin-orbit coupling functions along with the relevant transition dipole moments were obtained by performing the quasi-relativistic electronic structure calculations. The mass-invariant molecular parameters obtained from the fit were used to predict energy and radiative properties of the A ∼ b complex for low J levels of (39)K(85)Rb as well as for (41)K(87)Rb isotopologues, allowing us to identify the most reasonable candidates for the stimulated Raman transitions between the initial uppermost vibrational levels of the a(3)Σ(+) and X(1)Σ(+) states, the intermediate levels of the A ∼ b complex, and the lowest absolute ground X(1)Σ(+)(v = 0, J = 0) state.
