Spin-orbit interaction in the HD$^+$ ion

Atomic Physics 2022-11-09 v1

Abstract

We report on progress in calculation of the spin-orbit interaction for the HD+^+ molecular ion. This interaction is currently the largest source of theoretical uncertainty in determination of the hyperfine structure of rovibrational transition lines. The corrections of order mα7ln(α)m\alpha^7\ln(\alpha) are derived and numerically calculated. Theoretical hyperfine intervals are compared with experimental data, and the observed discrepancies are discussed.
