β¦ Synopsis
The spin-spin and spin-orbit contributions to the fine-structure constant of 02 in its X3cg state are determined by ab initio met!lods. For the spin-spin interaction ;iss, an extensive configuration interaction (Cl) calculation is cdrried out with a Slater basis set of double-zeta quality. The correlaticn terms wh!ch affect hs, most arc identified, and it is found that although each of these terms can change Xss drastically, their net eifeci tends to be self-cance!hng. The 2.5+1 c s in-orbit contribution hso is evaluated by assuming that the lowest members of the excited states ~?+t $, and fig for S = 0, I, 2 correctly describe the pcrturbntion.
Using ground-state5CF orbitals to construct single-configuration wavefunctions for these states, we find that the tzg state is the dominant contributor. Approximately 80%

Based on an ab initio potential energy surface for the X 3A" ground state of the Ar-NH van der Waals complex its rovibrational fine-structure spectrum has been calculated. We find four Ar-NH stretching vibrational modes with the NH radical in a nearly unperturbed n-0 rotational state and one vibrati
Extended basis set calculations have been performed for the ground state of 0.12 using CI(SD) and the coupled pair functional (CPF) method, a size-consistent moditication of CI(SD).

We examine the spin-orbit splitting of the 2p electronic ground state of the TI atom by two different approaches, both of which incorporate relativistic effects: namely, a four-component method involving the Dirac-Coulomb-Breit Hamiltonian, and a two-component method which makes use of the Douglas-K
