Critical Evaluation of the Prediction of the Dissociation Energy and the Energy Spectrum of the Ground State of KRb by the Reduced Potential Curve Method.
The estimates of the value of the dissociation energy and the energy spectrum of the KRb molecule made previously (O. Bludský, M. Ju&rbreve;ek, V. Spirko, B. A. Brandt, and F. Jen&cbreve;, 1995, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 169, 555-582) are compared with the new experimental data (C. Amiot and J. Vergès, 2000, J. Chem. Phys. 112, 7068-7074) and the efficacy of the reduced potential curve (RPC) method is demonstrated. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
