Quasibound Molecular States
We have implemented the stabilization method of Mandelshtam, Taylor and co-workers to calculate the quasibound states of a triatomic molecule. So far, the resulting computer program has been applied to 1B2 ozone and to H2O++ in its electronic ground state.
We have also done calculations for the C1B2 electronic state of SO2; the diagram shows a cut through the potential energy surface of this state.
