Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive theoretical treatment of the low-lying electronic states of the molecular ions PF+ and NCl+. CASSCF + CI calculations have been made with the correlation-consistent valence triple-zeta basis sets. For PF+ only four states (X2Π, A2Σ+, 14Π, 14Σ) states have bound potential energy curves. In the case of NCl+ there are many more bound states, namely X2Π, 22Π,32Π, 22Σ+, 22Σ,2Δ, 14Π, 14Σ. Spectroscopic constants have been calculated for these states and should be reasonable predictions for the experimental values.
