Algebraic Model for Molecular Electronic Spectra

  • Chapter
Symmetries in Science V

Abstract

A unified algebraic model for rotation-vibration and electronic excitations in diatomic molecules is presented. Dynamical symmetries are constructed in the united atoms limit, which provide analytic bases for realistic calculations. The model is applied to a series of hydride molecules, determining many of the parameters from atomic calculations. A method to extract Born-Oppenheimer potentials for these molecules is introduced.
