Abstract:The diatomic dication SiC 2+ in the gas phase is studied using the stateaveraged version of the CASSCF method and the state-specific MRMP perturbation theory to recover dynamical correlation effects. Thirteen different electronic states of the dication were found and characterized, ten of them being metastable electronic states. The ground state is characterized by a 3 Π electronic state. The leading configuration state functions are provided for each electronic state. For completeness, a similar study is pres… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
