Ngerl at Innsbruck Energy/cm -1 The DVR Method * DVR method computes perturbed wavefunctions to a high degree of accuracy, because all mesh points are used to obtain d 2 /dR 2 Kinetic Energy is represented by a full matrix over the mesh points, The potential energies are diagonal, V ii = ii (R i ) Hamiltonian matrix, n n n=number of R mesh points number of channels (, etc). * Colbert and Miller, Journal of Chemical Physics 96, 1982 (1992) Coupled Channel Analysis Hamiltonian matrix: Potential: Spin-orbit functions: Atomic fine structure interval Hannover or: Morse/long-range Modified Morse Potential/Long-Range (MLR) Dispersion coefficients: C 3 (A) = 6.810 5 cm -1 3, C 3 (b) = 3.410 5 cm -1 3 Derevianko, Babb, Dalgarno, PRA 63, (2001) C 6 (A) = 8.4 10 7 cm -1 6, C 6 (A) = 8.4 10 7 cm -1 6 Porsev, Derevianko, J.

Acknowledgements Thank you for your attention p=1 (Lennard-Jones) p=2 p=3 p=4 p=5 R / R e The power p in the expansion variable y p (R) is very important ! For p too small, most of the domain y p (R) is outside the region where the polynomial in y p (R) is determined, so polynomial may misbehave there. For p too large, y p (R) is too flat in the outer parts of the data region to allow a good fit to the data.
