Calculation of Spectroscopic Parameters of Diatomic Molecules with an Open Electron Shell

Аннотация

The spectroscopic parameters of the BeH and CH molecules with an open electron shell are calculated in the basis of the Slater functions. An analytical expression for the total electron energy of molecules with an open electron shell is obtained. The total electron energy of the BeH and CH molecules was calculated by the Hartree–Fock–Roothaan (HFR) method for seven internuclear distances, including the equilibrium internuclear distance. A table of total energy values is constructed depending on the internuclear distance R. The total energy of a diatomic molecule is approximated as a third-degree polynomial in R. Applying the least squares method to energy values from the above-mentioned table, an analytical formula for the total energy of the BeH and CH molecules is obtained as a function of R. The analytical formula for E(R) has allowed the spectroscopic parameters ω_e (harmonic vibrational frequency), ω_ex_e (anharmonicity constant), B_e (rotational constant), and α_e (rovibrational interaction constant) to be calculated.
