POTENTIAL ENERGY CURVES FOR C2
Abstract
Potential energy curves for several electronic states of C2 were calculated by the Rydberg Klein - Rees method. These curves were compared with some recent quantum calculations of Clementi and Pitzer on this same system. The recent identification of the ground state by Ballik and Ramsay (J. Chem. Phys. 31:1128, 1959) and the determination of the dissociation energy by Brewer, Hicks and Krikorian (J. Chem. Phys. 33:0000, 1961) were used to calculate tentative values for the dissociation energies of all observed excited electronic states. (Author)
