Abstract

The algorithm of energy level calculation for symmetric 4–6 atomic molecules was considered. The question of choice of coordinates, of the form of potential energy surface, and methods of solutions of Schrödinger equation were considered. The kinetic energy operator for molecules of AB4 type in internal mass-independent coordinates was built.
