Interaction-Induced Dipole Moment Of The Ar–H2 Dimer: Dependence On The H2 Bond Length, Robert J. Hinde
Interaction-Induced Dipole Moment Of The Ar–H2 Dimer: Dependence On The H2 Bond Length, Robert J. Hinde
Robert Hinde
We present ab initio calculations of the interaction-induced dipole moment of the Ar–H2 van der Waals dimer. The primary focus of our calculations is on the H2 bond length dependence of the dipole moment, which determines the intensities of both the collision-induced H2 = 1 ← 0 fundamental band in gaseous Ar–H2 mixtures and the dopant-induced H2 = 1 ← 0 absorption feature in Ar-doped solid H2 matrices. Our calculations employ large atom-centered basis sets, diffuse bond functions positioned between the two monomers, and a coupled cluster treatment of valence electron correlation; core-valence correlation …
Vibrational Dependence Of The H2–H2 C6 Coefficients, Robert Hinde
Vibrational Dependence Of The H2–H2 C6 Coefficients, Robert Hinde
Robert Hinde
We use the sum-over-states formalism to compute the imaginary-frequency dipole polarizabilities for H2, as a function of the H–H bond length, at the full configuration interaction level of theory using atom-centered d-aug-cc-pVQZ basis sets. From these polarizabilities, we obtain isotropic and anisotropic C6 dispersion coefficients for a pair of H2 molecules as functions of the two molecules’ bond lengths.
The He-Lih Potential Energy Surface Revisited. I. An Interpolated Rigid Rotor Surface, Robert Hinde
The He-Lih Potential Energy Surface Revisited. I. An Interpolated Rigid Rotor Surface, Robert Hinde
Robert Hinde
We reconsider the potential energy surface of the He–LiH system recently examined by Gianturco and co-workers [F. A. Gianturco et al., Chem. Phys. 215, 227 (1997)]. We compute the He–LiH interaction energy at the CCSD(T) level using large correlation consistent atomic basis sets supplemented with bond functions. To capture the severe anisotropy of the He–LiH potential, we interpolate our ab initio points in the angular direction with cubic splines, then expand the splines in terms of Legendre polynomials. The resulting smooth potential surface differs substantially from that of Gianturco et al.; in particular, our attractive He–LiH well is more …
