Photodissociation of NaK: Ab initio spin-orbit interaction of the Na (32S) and K (42Pj) manifold

Description

The relevant interstate b3II, A1Σ+, c3Σ+, and B1II spin-orbit induced matrix elements, arising from the Ma (32S) K (42Pj) manifold are treated within the full microscopic Breit-Pauli approximation based on ab initio configuration interaction (CI) wave functions. The determination of these couplings as a function of the internuclear distance of NaK should permit a full treatment of the fine-structure branching ratio K*(42P1/2(D1))/Kasterisk(42P3/2(D2)) in manifold-meditated photodissociation and in the treatment of interstate perturbations
