Abstract
The Franck-Condon (FC) factors and r-centroids for the bands system C(1)Sig ma(+) --> X(1)Sigma(+) of AlD and E(2)Pi --> X(2)Sigma(+) of CaH have been evaluated by means of a reliable numerical integration procedure by using a suitable potential. The dissociation energy, D-e, for the electronic groun d states of AlD and CaH have been estimated by the curve fitting method to the RKRV experimental potential curve turning out to be 3.01 eV and 2.32 eV , respectively.
