Theoretical Investigations of Metastability and Energy Storage in Molecular Systems

Abstract

A manuscript was completed and describing the metastable vibrational levels of the D (1) delta and I (1) sum (-) states of CO. Methods of population of these levels have been investigated. Work on binding in several high-spin multiplicity system, (6) sum (+) states in CN and NO, is almost complete.
