Abstract

A hierarchical family of global analytic Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surfaces for the H3 system was given. The surfaces, denoted A2, A3, A4, and CCI, were fitted to accurate MRCI energies of aug-cc-pVDZ, aug-cc-pVTZ, aug-cc-pVQZ, and complete basis set (CBS) quality was estimated. These new surfaces were compared to the earlier analytic H3 surfaces (LSTH, DMBE, BKMP, and BKMP2). The new surfaces displayed a considerably improved representation of the long-range anisotropy.
