Abstract

The excimer-like ions formed by combining a rare gas ion with an alkali atom were investigated by an ab initio HF-CI calculation. The resulting four bound excited states1Σ+,1Π,3Σ+ and3Π were subjected to a semiempirical spin orbit (SO)-coupling yielding eight fine structure levels with angular momenta Ω=2, 1(3) and 0(4). For (NeLi)+, (NeNa)+, (ArLi)+, (ArNa)+, (ArK)+ and (KrLi)+ the wavelengths for the five allowed transitions to the ground state were calculated. The results are in close agreement with the experimental results. Also other spectroscopic properties as binding energies, transition moments and vibrational quanta are given.
