The two electron configuration in the Helium atom is known to very high precision. Yet, we tend to refer to this configuration as a $1s\uparrow 1s\downarrow$ singlet, where the designations refer to Hydrogen orbitals. The high precision…
Analytic potentials are built for all four $^{2S+1}\Pi_{u/g}$ states of Li$_{2}$ dissociating to Li$(2S)$ + Li$(3P)$: $3b(3^{3}\Pi_{u})$, $3B(3^{1}\Pi_{u})$, $3C(3^{1}\Pi_{g}),$ and $3d(3^{3}\Pi_{g})$. These potentials include the effect of…
