The two four-dimensional diabatic potential energy surfaces (DPESs) for OH-HCl are computed that correlate with the twofold degenerate (2)Pi ground state of the free OH radical. About 20 000 points on the surface are obtained by the ab initio coupled-cluster and multi-reference configuration interaction methods. Analytic forms for the diabatic potential energy surfaces are derived as expansions in complete sets of orthogonal functions depending on the three intermolecular angles. The numeric computation of the angular expansion coefficients is discussed. The distance-dependence of the angular coefficients is represented by the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method. It is checked that both diabatic potentials converge for large intermolecular separations to the values computed directly from the electrostatic multipole expansion. The final DPESs are discussed and illustrated by some physically meaningful one- and two-dimensional cuts through them. (c) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
