current paper reports a global investigation of all excited
states below the ionic limit Fr+Na– of
FrNa molecule following diabatic and adiabatic representations. The
adiabatic and diabatic potential energy curves (PECs) for Σ+, Π, and Δ symmetries have been calculated for
a dense grid of internuclear distances. The transition and permanent
dipole moments (TDM and PDM) have been reported for both representations.
Regarding the pseudopotential approach and full valence configuration
interaction (FCI), the ab initio computation has been performed. Furthermore,
the diabatization method was achieved by the use of the variational
effective Hamiltonian theory (VEH). This latter served to assess the
nonadiabatic coupling between the treated adiabatic states and to
eliminate it employing a suitable unitary transformation matrix. The
detailed computation of the PECs and PDM and TDM curves of the ground
and excited states play a key role to coordinate experimental efforts
in order to create cold and ultracold molecules in their ground stable
rovibrational levels.
