Abstract

A rovibronic line list for the ground (X 3Σ−) and first excited (a 1Δ) states of phosphinidene, 31PH, is computed. The line list is designed for studies of exoplanetary and cool stellar atmospheres with temperatures up to 4000 K. A combination of empirical and ab initio data is used to produce the line list: potential energy curves (PECs) are fitted using experimental transition frequencies; these transitions are reproduced with a root mean square error of 0.01 cm−1. The nuclear Schrödinger equation is solved using these PECs plus Born–Oppenheimer and spin splitting correction terms. Line intensities and Einstein A coefficients are computed using ab initio dipole moment curves for X–X and a–a transitions. The resulting LaTY line list, which contains 65 055 transitions for 2528 rovibronic states up to 24 500 cm −1 and J = 80, is used to simulate spectra in emission and absorption for a range of temperatures. The line list is made available in electronic form at the CDS and ExoMol data bases.
