Popis: Modern molecular spectroscopy of diatomic molecules is the precision study of the structure and dynamics of electronically excited states of isolated molecules in the gas phase. At the same time, the energy, radiation, magnetic, and electrical characteristics of excited molecules, which are of interest for different physicochemical applications, must be determined and predicted at the experimental (spectral) level of accuracy in a broad range of electron vibrational and rotational excitations. This problem cannot be solved within spectroscopy’s traditional adiabatic approximation, since a large number of intramolecular interactions (so-called perturbations) inevitably distorts not only the regular energy structure of different levels but he nodal structure of the corresponding wave functions as well. The most accurate solution to both direct and inverse spectroscopic problems with respect to perturbed molecular states is based on constructing a reduced system of the coupled radial Schrodinger equations encountered in the quantum-mechanical modeling of the nonadiabatic interaction of electronic states. The nonadiabatic approach can be employed successfully only through the joint use of precision spectroscopic data and highly precise calculations of electronic structure.
