Abstract

For CH2+ molecular ions at 5 K we simulate the infrared absorption spectrum, and tabulate all strong absorption lines from 0 to 16 000 cm-1. We use ab initio potential energy, dipole moment, and transition moment surfaces in conjunction with our program system RENNER, which allows for the Renner-Teller effect and spin-orbit coupling in a full-dimensions calculation. This is done for the purpose of guiding our search for the matrix isolation spectrum; our attempts at finding this spectrum are also described.
