Abstract

Characteristics and dynamics of superexcited states (SES) of diatomic molecules are discussed mainly from the theoretical viewpoint. A recently developed general theoretical procedure to reveal these characteristics and dynamics is briefly reviewed. The method is based on the multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT), but effectively utilizes quantum chemical calculations of electronic states and spectroscopic experiments. This should break the bottleneck in theoretical studies and is expected to be useful in revealing SESs of diatomic molecules. The framework of MQDT is briefly explained to help in understanding the procedure. Theoretical studies of the SESs of H2, NO, and CO made so far are also briefly summarized.
