Abstract

Second-order configuration interaction (SOCI) calculations on Si 2 and C 2 in their lowest 3Σ − g and 3Π u, states, combined with experimental data for C 2, lead to a prediction of a near certain 3Σ g −Si 2 ground state with T e = 180 ± 200 cm −1. Enough computed information is now available to guide an experimental search for the bands in the 3Σ − g to 3Π u electronic transition.
