The intersection of potential energy surfaces in polyatomic molecules
Abstract
It is proved that if the wave function of a given electronic state changes sign when transported adiabatically round a loop in nuclear configuration space, then the state must become degenerate with another one at some point within the loop. I t is further shown that this condition is satisfied by certain unsymmetrical triatomic systems, thereby disposing of a recent claim that the non-crossing rule for diatomic molecules applies also to polyatomic molecules.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
