Abstract

Comprehensive and accurate rovibronic line lists for the X 1Σ+ and A 1Π states of 12C1H+ and 13C1H+ which should be applicable up to temperatures of 5000 K are presented. Available empirical potential energy curves and high-level ab initio dipole and transition dipole moment curves are used with the program LEVEL to compute rovibronic energy levels and Einstein A coefficients. Λ-doubling is incorporated into the energy levels and A-coefficients involving the A 1Π state using an empirical method. For 12C1H+, line positions are improved by using both laboratory and astronomical observational spectra as input to the MARVEL procedure. The 12C1H+ line list contains 1505 states and 34 194 transitions over the frequency range of 0 – 33 010 cm−1 (λ > 300 nm). Comparisons with observed astronomical and laboratory spectra give very good agreement. The PYT CH+ line lists and partition functions are available from the ExoMol database at www.exomol.com.
