Laser spectroscopy of van der Waals diatoms produced in supersonic beams is a source of
information on the ground-and excited-state interatomic potentials. The goal of this review …

General correlations between van der Waals interaction potential parameters and
polarizabilities of the interacting neutral–neutral partners of any nature are presented and …

In this article, we present the first comprehensive study of metallophilic (aurophilic)
interactions using dispersion-corrected density-functional theory. Dispersion interactions (an …

Mg+–CO2 ion–molecule cluster complexes are produced by laser vaporization in a pulsed
nozzle cluster source. The vibronic spectroscopy in these complexes is studied with mass …

Adiabatic potential curves for the ground state and several low-lying excited states of the
cadmium atom interacting with He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe have been obtained from valence ab …

The van der Waals' bonding of atoms and molecules has become an increasingly important
topic of study in the last few years in many areas of physical chemistry. One of the …

Conclusion It is clear from the results presented that time-resolved sur-face-enhanced
Raman spectroscopy can provide a valuable tool for detailed studies of short-lived …

Photoassociation, the bound← free absorption of a photon by a colliding pair of atoms, has
been studied experimentally in the Kr–F and Xe–I systems and is demonstrated to be an …

The results of large-scale valence ab initio calculations of the potential-energy curves for the
ground states and several excited states of Cd–rare gas (RG) van der Waals molecules are …

Laser‐induced fluorescence spectroscopy was utilized to characterize the b 3Π2 and e 3Σ+
states of the CdAr molecule. The CdAr (b 3Π2) state was synthesized by entrainment of …
