Abstract:
We refine analytical representations of the potential energy surfaces for the 1 (2)A', 2 (2)A', and 1 (2)A″ electronic states of BeOH in simultaneous least-squares fittings of experimental and ab initio data. These optimizations are carried out with the MORBID and RENNER programs, using input data from Mascaritolo, Merritt, Heaven, and Jensen (Experimental and Theoretical Characterization of the 2(2)A'-1(2)A' Transition of BeOH/D. J. Phys. Chem. A. 2013, 117, 13654-13663). With the refined potential energy surfaces, we make predictions of energy levels for BeOH/D that have not been experimentally determined so far. We hope that these predictions will permit further assignments to be made in the electronic spectra of BeOH/D.

Electronic Structure of Atoms
An atom comprises protons and neutrons, which are contained inside the dense, central core called the nucleus, with electrons present around the nucleus. Taking into account the wave–particle duality of electrons and the uncertainty in position around the nucleus, quantum mechanics provides a more accurate model for the atomic structure. It describes atomic orbitals as the regions around the nucleus where electrons of discrete energy exist, characterized by four quantum...
