Spectroscopic constants for the ground states of the first row transition metal monoxides and iron monohydride have been determined from SCF and CI(SD) calculations using energy-adjusted ab initio pseudopotentials representing the Ne-like X(Z−10)+ cores of the transition metals. For iron monoxide and iron monohydride excited states have also been investigated and electron affinities have been determined.
