Bn. Plakhutin et Av. Arbuznikov, SPECTRUM OF STATES IN ICOSAHEDRAL STRUCTURES WITH G(N) ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION (N=1-7) - 2 - AB-INITIO CALCULATION OF THE C-20 (I-H) MOLECULE AND ITS ANIONS, Journal of structural chemistry, 38(4), 1997, pp. 501-510
Ab initio 4-31G calculations of the C-20 (I-h) molecule and its anions
in different spectroscopic states arising from the ground electronic
configuration g(N) are reported. The purpose of these calculations is
an independent (quantum chemical) verification of the invariant expans
ions for the energy obtained in the previous work [15], in particular,
of the conclusion derived from these expansions that states with diff
erent symmetries in the g(N) (I,I-h) configuration are degenerate.
