We carry out a detailed study of the role of electronic interaction on $p$ oxygen orbitals in a Mott insulator oxide (UO$_2$) and a charge transfer oxide (TiO$_2$). First, we calculate values of effective interactions \Uff, \Upp{} and…
A benchmark study has been carried out on the ground-state potential curve of the hydroxyl anion, OH^{-}, including detailed calibration of both the 1-particle and n-particle basis sets. The CCSD(T) basis set limit overestimates $\omega_e$…
This chapter deals with atom-wall interaction occurring in the "long-range" regime (typical distances: 1-1000 nm), when the electromagnetic fluctuations of an isolated atom are modified by the vicinity with a surface. Various regimes of…
Recent data have determined that the structure of the high pressure $\epsilon$ phase of solid oxygen consists of clusters composed of four O$_2$ molecules. This finding has opened the question about the nature of the intermolecular…

The interaction of an electron with a local static charge distribution (e.g., an atom or molecule) is dominated at large distances by the radial 1/r Coulomb potential. The second order effect comes from the non-central electric dipole…
The mobility of O atoms at very low temperatures is not generally taken into account, despite O diffusion would add to a series of processes leading to the observed rich molecular diversity in space. We present a study of the mobility and…
Only a few weakly-bound complexes containing the O2 molecule have been characterized by high resolution spectroscopy, no doubt due to the complications added by the oxygen molecule's unpaired electron spin. Here we report an extensive…
Monitoring ozone concentrations in the Earth's atmosphere using spectroscopic methods is a major activity which undertaken both from the ground and from space. However there are long-running issues of consistency between measurements made…
