1 Theoretical Studies of Electronic Spectra and Bonding in AlCl/AlF Jeff Leiding, D. E. Woon and T. H. Dunning, Jr. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

2 Introduction 1.AlCl and AlF discovered in circumstellar envelope of the carbon star IRC+10216 1,2 2.AlF observed in sunspot umbra 3 3.AlCl and AlF exhibit interesting bonding which we can explain with recoupled pair bonding (RPB) 4.Experimentally well-studied systems: Good for benchmarking of theory 1.Cernicharo et al., Astron. Astrophys. 1987, 183, L10. 2.Ziurys et al., Astrophys. J. 1994, 433, 729. 3.Bagare et al., Solar Phys. 2006, 234, 1.

3 Introduction Why are the excited states bound, and by so much?

4 Outline 1.Methodology 2.Recoupled pair bonding of AlCl/AlF 3.Quantitative agreement of theoretical AlCl/AlF spectroscopic parameters with experiment 4.Theoretical term values of AlF compared to experiment

5 Methods CASSCF/MRCI+Q aug-cc-pwCV5Z Transform CAS orbitals into GVB orbitals: singly occupied, atom-centered Rovibrational levels calculated with “LEVEL” program 1 on ab initio PECs 1.R. J.
