Second virial coefficients for helium-4 and helium-3 from accurate relativistic interaction potential

The second virial coefficient and the second acoustic virial coefficient for helium-4 and helium-3 are computed for a wide range of temperatures (0.5 - 1000K) using a highly accurate nonrelativistic interaction potential [M. Przybytek et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 123401 (2017)] and recalculated relativistic and quantum-electrodynamic components. The effects of the long-range retardation and of the nonadiabatic coupling of the nuclear and electronic motion are also taken into account. The results of our calculations represent at least fivefold improvement in accuracy compared to the previous ab initio work. The computed virial coefficients agree well with the most accurate recent measurements but have significantly smaller uncertainty.

Rovibrational energy levels of the hydrogen molecule through nonadiabatic perturbation theory

We present an accurate theoretical determination of rovibrational energy levels of the hydrogen molecule and its isotopologues in its electronic ground state. We consider all significant corrections to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, obtained within nonadiabatic perturbation theory, including the mixed nonadiabatic-relativistic effects. Quantum electrodynamic corrections in the leading $α^5\,m$ and the next-to-leading $α^6\,m$ orders, as well as finite nuclear size effect, are also taken into account but within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation only. Final results for the transition wavelength between rovibrational levels achieve accuracy of the order of $10^{-3}$--$10^{-7}$ cm$^{-1}$, and are provided by simple to use computer code.
