Ro-vibrational states of H$_2^+$. Variational calculations

Abstract

The nonrelativistic variational calculation of a complete set of ro-vibrational states in the H$_2^+$ molecular ion supported by the ground $1s\sigma$ adiabatic potential is presented. It includes both bound states and resonances located above the $n=1$ threshold. In the latter case we also evaluate a predissociation width of a state wherever it is significant. Relativistic and radiative corrections are discussed and effective adiabatic potentials of these corrections are included as supplementary files.
