Abstract

Potential energy and permanent dipole moment surfaces of the electronic ground state of formyl negative ion HCO- are determined for a large number of geometries using the coupled-cluster theory with single and double and perturbative treatment of triple excitations ab initio method with a large basis set. The obtained data are used to construct interpolated surfaces, which are extended analytically to the region of large separations between CO and H- with the multipole expansion approach. We have calculated the energy of the lowest rovibrational levels of HCO- that should guide the spectroscopic characterization of HCO- in laboratory experiments. The study can also help to detect HCO- in the cold and dense regions of the interstellar medium where the anion could be formed through the association of abundant CO with still unobserved H-.
