S. Hackel et al., CALCULATIONS OF THE POLYCENTRIC LINEAR MOLECULE H-3(2-ELEMENT METHOD() WITH THE FINITE), Chemical physics letters, 206(1-4), 1993, pp. 91-95
A fully numerical two-dimensional solution of the Schrodinger equation
is presented for the linear polyatomic molecule H-3(2+) using the fin
ite element method (FEM). The Coulomb singularities at the nuclei are
rectified by using both a condensed element distribution around the si
ngularities and special elements. The accuracy of the results for the
1sigma and 2sigma orbitals is of the order of 10(-7) au.
