The HeH$^+$ cation undergoes dissociative recombination with a free electron to produce neutral He and H fragments. We present calculations using ab initio quantum defects and Fanos rovibrational frame transformation technique, along with the methodology of PRL 89, 263003 (2002), to obtain the recombination rate both in the low-energy (1-300 meV) and high-energy (ca. 0.6 hartree) regions. We obtain very good agreement with experimental results, demonstrating that this relatively simple method is able to reproduce observed rates for both indirect dissociative recombination, driven by rovibrationally autoionizing states in the low-energy region, and direct dissociative recombination, driven by electronically autoionizing Rydberg states attached to higher-energy excited cation channels.

We present the results of calculations determining the cross sections for indirect dissociative recombination of LiH$_2^+$ + $e^-$. These calculations employ multichannel quantum defect theory and Fanos rovibrational frame transformation technique to
obtain the indirect DR cross section in the manner described by Ref.cite{hamilton}. We use textit{ab initio} electron-molecule scattering codes to calculate quantum defects. In contrast to H$_3^+$, the LiH$_2^+$ molecule exhibits considerable mixing between rotation and vibration; however, by incorporating an exact treatment of the rovibrational dynamics of the LiH$_2^+$, we show that this mixing has only a small effect on the observed DR rate. We calculate a large DR rate for this cation, 4.0 $times$ 10$^{-7}$ cm$^{3}$ s$^{-1}$ at 1 meV incident electron energy.
We estimate rates for the dissociative recombination (DR) of NO$_2^+$ + e$^-$. Although accurate excited state potential energy curves for the excited states of the neutral are not available, we estimate that the 1 $^2${Phi}$_g$ and the 1 $^2${Pi}$_g
$ states of the neutral may intersect the ground state cation potential energy surface near its equilibrium geometry. Using fixed nuclei scattering calculations we estimate the rate for direct DR via these states and find it to be significant. We also perform approximate calculations of DR triggered by the indirect mechanism, which suggest that the indirect DR rate for NO$_2^+$ is insignificant compared to the direct rate.
We experimentally investigate laser-induced dissociative recombination of CO$_2$ in linearly polarized strong laser fields with coincidence measurements. Our results show laser-induced dissociation processes originate from an electron recombination p
rocess after laser-induced double ionization. After double ionization of CO$_2$, one electron is recaptured by the CO$_2^{2+}$ and localized to O$^+$ or CO$^+$ in the following dissociation process. We found that the probability of electron localization to O$^{+}$ is much higher than that to CO$^+$. Further, our measurements reveal that the recombination probability of the first ionized electron is three times as high as that of the second ionized electron. Our work may trigger further experimental and theoretical studies on involved nuclear and electron dynamics in laser-induced dissociative recombination of molecules and their applications in controlling molecular dissociation with ultrashort laser pulses.
Accurate knowledge of the rovibronic near-infrared and visible spectra of vanadium monoxide (VO) is very important for studies of cool stellar and hot planetary atmospheres. Here, the required ab initio dipole moment and spin-orbit coupling curves fo
r VO are produced. This data forms the basis of a new VO line list considering 13 different electronic states and containing over 277 million transitions. Open shell transition, metal diatomics are challenging species to model through ab initio quantum mechanics due to the large number of low-lying electronic states, significant spin-orbit coupling and strong static and dynamic electron correlation. Multi-reference configuration interaction methodologies using orbitals from a complete active space self-consistent-field (CASSCF) calculation are the standard technique for these systems. We use different state-specific or minimal-state CASSCF orbitals for each electronic state to maximise the calculation accuracy. The off-diagonal dipole moment controls the intensity of electronic transitions. We test finite-field off-diagonal dipole moments, but found that (1) the accuracy of the excitation energies were not sufficient to allow accurate dipole moments to be evaluated and (2) computer time requirements for perpendicular transitions were prohibitive. The best off-diagonal dipole moments are calculated using wavefunctions with different CASSCF orbitals.
Reliable quantum chemical methods for the description of molecules with dense-lying frontier orbitals are needed in the context of many chemical compounds and reactions. Here, we review developments that led to our newcomputational toolbo x which imp
lements the quantum chemical density matrix renormalization group in a second-generation algorithm. We present an overview of the different components of this toolbox.
