โฆ Synopsis
Converged nine-dimensional vibrational eigenvalue calculations are reported for forty energy levels of (HF), for the case of zero total angular momentum. The effect of H-F stretching motions on the van der Waals bound states is assessed by comparing the results to seven-dimensional calculations in which the monomer stretches are frozen. Coupling to the HF monomer stretches increases the tunneling splitting by a factor of 3.7, and it changes some of the other excitation energies by up to 4 cm-'.

A general variational method for calculating vibrational energy levels of tetraatomic molecules is presented. The quantum mechanical Hamiltonian of the system is expressed in a set of coordinates defined by three orthogonalized vectors in the bodyfixed frame without any dynamical approximation. The
