Abstract

Earlier (LCAO) structure calculations for H 2 + ungerade and H 2 triplet states based on the channel coupling array (CCA) theory of many-particle collisions have yielded unphysical potential energy curves. It is shown herein for H 2 + that this is a result of not requiring the CCA wavefunction components to obey a certain boundary condition. A simple ansatz obeying this condition is constructed and shown to yield a physically correct, approximate ungerade potential energy.
