We report ab initio potential energy curves for the interaction of ground state He atoms with the
triplet He2* excimers. Fully converged, unrestricted, open-shell, coupled-cluster method including
singles, doubles, and perturbative treatment of triples substitutions UCCSD T is used to compute
the He2*He potential energy curves for the a(3
u) and c(3
g) states. The internally contracted
multireference configuration interaction method ICMRCI is used to compute the potential energy
curves for a(3
u), b(3
g), d(3
u), e(3
g), f(3
u), and f(3
u) states. Where they can be
