Theoretical MRCI + Q study on electronic structure and spectroscopic properties of the HX<sup>+</sup>(X = F, Cl, Br, I) cations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, we have systematacially investigated the electronic structure and spectroscopic properties of the HX+ (X = F, Cl, Br, I) cations by using the highly correlated MRCI + Q approach. This is the first comprehensive ab initio study on the electronic states of the HX+ cations. The spin–orbit coupling (SOC) effect is introduced with the state interaction approach. There are total 10 Λ-S and 18 Ω states obtained in the calculation. The results show that the potential energy curves’ (PECs) shapes and structure of the electronic states of different HX+ cations exhibit the significant distinction due to the X-dependent energy-level order of the unique dissociation channel H+(1Sg) + X(2Pu). From PECs, the spectroscopic constants of the bound electronic states are determined, which are in good agreement with available observed values. Regarding HBr+ and HI+, the good agreement has been achieved only when the SOC effect is considered. The predissociation for the first excited A2Σ+ state of HCl+, HBr+, and HI+ is analyzed based on computed spin–orbit matrix elements. Around the equilibrium position, the energy splittings of X2Π are calculated to be 288, 661, 2691, and 5137 cm−1 for HF+, HCl+, HBr+, and HI+, respectively. It has been demonstrated that SOC is substantial for HX+, leading to significant changes in PECs’ shapes as well as in electronic structure. Finally, the transition properties are predicted, including transition dipole moments, Franck–Condon factors, and radiative lifetimes. Both the Ω transitions A2Σ+ 1/2-X2Π3/2 and A2Σ+ 1/2-X2Π1/2 of the HX+ cations are determined to possess the radiative lifetimes at the microsecond (µs) level.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
