Abstract The potential energy curves (PECs) of 14 Λ-S states for magnesium chloride (MgCl) have been calculated by using multi-reference configuration interaction method with Davidson correction (MRCI+Q). The core-valence correlation (CV), scalar relativistic effect, and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effect are considered in the electronic structure computations. The spectroscopic constants of X2Σ+ and A2Π states have been obtained, which are in good agreement with the existing theoretical and experimental results. Furthermore, other higher electronic states are also characterized. The permanent dipole moments (PDMs) of Λ-S states and the spinorbit (SO) matrix elements between Λ-S states are also computed. The results indicate that the abrupt changes of PDMs and the SO matrix elements are attributed to the avoided crossing between the states with the same symmetry. The SOC effect is taken into account with Breit-Pauli operator, which makes the 14 Λ-S states split into 30 Ω states, and leads to a double-well potential of the Ω=(3)1/2 state. The energy splitting for the A2Π is calculated to be 53.61 cm-1 and in good agreement with the experimental result 54.47 cm-1. The transition dipole moments (TDMs), Franck-Condon factors (FCFs), and the corresponding radiative lifetimes of the selected transitions from excited Ω states to the ground state X2Σ+1/2 have been reported. The computed radiative lifetimes τν' of low-lying excites Ω states are all on the order of 10 ns. Finally, the feasibility of laser cooling of MgCl molecule has been analyzed.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
