Abstract
We present the main characteristics of the energy and coupling surface s for the BeH24+ quasimolecule, that are relevant to the dynamics of e lectron capture in Be4+ + H-2 collisions in the 50 eV amu(-1) < E < 1 keV amu(-1) energy range. To construct the wave functions, we implemen ted a block-diagonalization method using the many electron description standard (MELD) program, which was recently modified to calculate non adiabatic couplings.
