QED corrections for H 2 for J = 0 vibrational levels. All energies are in cm−1.
QED corrections (in cm −1 ), computed at the 69 MBB geometries using a MOLPRO and an a5z FCI wave function.
Vibrational band origins for H 3 + calculated with various models of nonadiabatic effects and with or without QED corrections. All energies are in cm −1.
CONCLUSIONS 5 components of H 3 + calcs BO, adiabatic, relativistic, QED All of them contribute more than 0.1 cm -1 Are now known with 0.01 cm -1 Remaining 0.2 cm -1 are due to nonadiabatic- the only thing left. Nonadiabatic contribution is 1 cm -1, so we now know it with the accuracy ~80%
