Electronic structure of He 2
The electronic structure of the He 2 − anion has been studied using optimized CI wavefunctions. We find that the 4Π g state of He 2 − is bound relative to the a 3Σ + u state of He 2, with a calculated electron affinity of 0.182 eV. Only the lowest vibrational level of this anion is stable relative t...

Summary: | The electronic structure of the He
2
− anion has been studied using optimized CI wavefunctions. We find that the
4Π
g state of He
2
− is bound relative to the a
3Σ
+
u state of He
2, with a calculated electron affinity of 0.182 eV. Only the lowest vibrational level of this anion is stable relative to the He
2(a
3Σ
+
u)+e continuum. |
