RADIATIVE TRANSITION-PROBABILITIES FOR B1-PI-X1-SIGMA-+ AND B1-PI-A1-SIGMA-+ BANDS OF (LIH)-LI-7

The recently reported [J. Chem. Phys. 66, 5412 (1977)] hybrid potential curves for the X1Σ+ and A1Σ + states of LiH and the herein reported hybrid potential curve for the B1Π state of LiH are combined with the ab initio transition moments of Docken and Hinze [J. Chem. Phys. 57, 4936 (1972)] to calculate radiative transition probabilities between all B1Π (v′ ≤ 2) and all X 1Σ+ (v″ ≤ 23) and A 1Σ+ (v″ ≤ 26) vibrational levels of 7LiH. The strongest single emission band found is the B 1Π (v′ = 2)→X 1Σ+ (v″ = 23) band between the highest long-range" levels in each potential. For all B 1Π levels the emission is dominated by B→X rather than B→A emission. © 1978 American Institute of Physics."
