Abstract
The electronic structure of CrF and CrCl in the low-lying sextets and quartets has been studied, using large atomic natural orbital basis sets and a variety of ab-initio methods, including multi-reference configuration interaction and coupled clusters with perturbative triples. We report the effects of perturbative scalar relativistic corrections and the correlation of the 3s and 3p electrons of the transition metal on $T_{e}, R_{e}$, and $w_{e}$. These corrections are necessary for quantitative agreement with experiment.
