C. Ribbing et al., ON THE POSSIBILITY OF A PSEUDO ATOMIC GROUND-STATE FOR CRF2 - AB-INITIO AND CRYSTAL-FIELD CALCULATIONS INCLUDING SPIN-ORBIT-COUPLING, The journal of physical chemistry. A, Molecules, spectroscopy, kinetics, environment, & general theory, 101(32), 1997, pp. 5813-5817
Ab-initio and crystal field calculations including spin-orbit coupling
suggest that the ground state of the CrF2 complex might have characte
ristics of an atomic type ground state. It is shown that the crossing
of the (5) Sigma(+) and (5) Pi can be compared to a P-5 spin-orbit spl
it atomic state.
