The application of ab initio potential energy surfaces and surfaces fitted to spectroscopically determined rotation-vibration levels of triatomic molecules are considered with particular attention to H-3(+) and (H2O)-O-16. Variational treatments of nuclear motion allow these surfaces to be determined with near spectroscopic accuracy and the breakdown of the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation to be quantified. Methods for determining the BO adiabatic correction both ab initio and from spectroscopic data are described.

Abstract
The application of ab initio potential energy surfaces and surfaces fitted to spectroscopically determined rotation-vibration levels of triatomic molecules are considered with particular attention to H-3(+) and (H2O)-O-16. Variational treatments of nuclear motion allow these surfaces to be determined with near spectroscopic accuracy and the breakdown of the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation to be quantified. Methods for determining the BO adiabatic correction both ab initio and from spectroscopic data are described.File in questo prodotto:
