Correlation Correction Study of CH, NH, and OH

Abstract
The semiempirical intra‐atomic correlation correction (ICC) of Hurley and a configuration‐interaction (CI) calculation are applied to previous single configuration calculations of the ground states of CH, NH, and OH. Results are reported for the 2Π, 4Σ, and 2Δ states of CH, the 3Σ state of NH, and the 2Π state of OH. The binding energies and dipole moments obtained for the hydrides are compared with experimental values and with the results of a similar calculation by Hurley of the ground states of these molecules. Results of a calculation of the Fermi contact term of the magnetic hyperfine interaction are also given.
