Abstract:High-level correlated molecular orbital theory calculations have been performed to predict the thermodynamic and electronic properties of diatomic NpH 0/+/− and PuH 0/+/− . The excited states up to ∼10,000 cm −1 were predicted for these molecules at the multireference SO-CASPT2 level. The inclusion of spin− orbit effects is fundamental to predict the low-lying state ordering. NpH is predicted to have a 5 Π 0 ground state, and PuH has a 6 Π 1/2 ground state at the SO-CASPT2 level. The adiabatic electron affinit… Show more
