A new four-dimensional ab initio potential energy surface and predicted infrared spectra for the He–CS2 complex

We present a new four-dimensional ab initio potential energy surface for He–CS2 that is constructed at the coupled cluster and doubles with noniterative inclusion of connected triple [CCSD(T)] level with augmented correlation-consistent quadruplet-zeta (aug-cc-pVQZ) basis set plus midpoint bond functions.

Each potential is found to have a T-shaped global minimum. The radial discrete variable representation/angular finite basis representation method is employed to calculate the rovibrational states without separating the inter- and intramolecular vibrations.
