Abstract:
The interaction between He and Cr is investigated by means of post-Hartree-Fock molecular orbital theory. We analyze the influence of the van der Waals forces on the complex electronic structure of the chromium atom, starting with its septet manifold and cover the first few electronically excited states up to 30 000 cm(-1). For the sake of a direct comparison with ongoing experiments on Cr-doped helium nanodroplets we extend our analysis to selected states of the quintet manifold in order to explain a non-radiating relaxation from y (7)P(o) to z (5)P(o).

Van der Waals Equation
First, the attractive forces between molecules, which are stronger at higher densities and reduce the pressure, are considered by adding to the pressure a term equal to the square of the molar density multiplied by a positive coefficient a. Second, the...
