THE POTENTIAL ENERGY CURVES FOR THE $X^{1}\Sigma^{+}$, $A^{1}\Sigma^{+}$ AND $B^{1}\Pi$ STATES OF LiH

Abstract

Information (primarily spectroscopic) concerning the potential energy curves for the $B^{1}$, A and X states of LiH (in various isotopic combinations) will be surveyed and ``best” potentials proposed. A study of the implications of these potentials, e.g., r the frequencies and intensities of A-X emission to high vibrationa1 levels in the ground state, is in progress and may also be presented.
