Theoretical Prediction of Electronically Excited States and Vibrational Frequencies of Interstellar and Planetary Radicals, Anions, and Cations

In the search for molecular species in the interstellar medium and extraterrestrial planetary atmospheres, theoretical methods continue to be an invaluable tool to astronomically minded chemists. Using state-of-the art methods, this doctoral work characterizes the electronically excited states of in...
