Abstract

Spontaneous radiative association of the molecular ion LiHe+ is investigated including three electronic states X1Σ+,A1Σ+, and a3Σ+. Cross sections for four processes of radiative association X→X, A→A, A→X, and a→a are calculated as functions of collision energy. The corresponding rates of formation are derived as functions of temperature. The A→X radiative association process exhibits the largest cross sections and rate coefficients because of the huge amount of the de-excitation energy from the A state to the X state.
