On the bonding in Be2(2+)
Abstract
The ground 1Sigma-g(+) state and excited 3Pi-u and 1P-u states of Be2(2+) have been studied. The ground state has 13 vibrational levels with an appreciable lifetime with respect to unimolecular decay. The 3Pi-u state also has an inner well with several vibrational levels with long lifetimes. The 1Pi-u state is repulsive, but the chemical bonding causes an inflection to appear in the potential curve.
