Potential Energy Surfaces for Air Triatomics. Volume II. Results of SCF and Preliminary OVC Calculations.

Computations at the SCF and MCSCF levels have been made on the vertical excitation energies and some of the ground and excited state potential surfaces of the fifteen air triatomic molecules: water, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and their positive and negative ions. The results presented are preliminary for the most part. Their accuracy will be assessed in a later report in which correlation effects will be more extensively examined than that have been in the present report.
