✦ Synopsis


Potential energy calculations for the interaction of CO( a 'IT) with Hr( X 'C: ) are presented, both at the MC SCF level and with the inclusion of extensive configuration interaction. In C1, geometry, the lowest two 3BI surfaces exhibit a strongly avoided crossing. At the highest level of theory used, the lowest surface provides a barrier-free adiabatic pathway for energy transfer from CO(a) to Hz, the products being CO(X '2') and H,(b '2: ), which dissociates to two H atoms. The energy transfer occurs by a two-electron exchange mechanism.
