Isotopic dependence of the predissociations of the E1Π state of CO

The predissociations of the E1Π state of CO are again studied. They include both the background predissociation attributed to the continuum of the A1Π state and the accidental predissociation due to the k3Π state. They are calculated using a coupled equations method. The three components of the k st...

Description
Summary:The predissociations of the E1Π state of CO are again studied. They include both the background predissociation attributed to the continuum of the A1Π state and the accidental predissociation due to the k3Π state. They are calculated using a coupled equations method. The three components of the k state are introduced. These predissociations are studied for different isotopologues and are shown to decrease with increasing reduced mass, in agreement with the experimental results of Ubachs et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 113, 547 (2000)].
