Self-consistent field calculations have been made of the potential energy curves for three states of HCl + , using a basis set believed to give energies very close to the Hartree- Fock limit. The curve for the 4 Pi state, dissociating to H( 2 S) and Cl + ( 3 P), crosses that of A 2 Sigma + state. Since these states may interact by spin-orbit coupling, a predissociation may occur in the A 2 Sigma + state. Calculations of the magnitude of this effect for both HCl + and DCl + gives results compatible with observed emission and photoelectron spectra.
