CCSD(T) ground state potential curves of Pb···RG systems (RG = He, Ne and Ar) are presented and the importance of the inclusion of spin-orbit effects is discussed. The closed-shell character of the Pb atom at the two-component relativistic level of relativistic theory leads to shallower potential energy curves compared to scalar relativistic open-shell calculations. The pressure-independent cross-diffusion coefficients pD12 have been simulated using the extrapolated two-component CCSD(T) ground state potential curves.

The scalar relativistic (REL) effects and spin-orbit coupling effects in the ground state potential curves of these weakly bounded dimers are considered. The CCSD(T) ground state potential curves at the level of the Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian (DCH) are compared with CCSD(T) curves at the level of 4-component spin-free modified DCH, the scalar 2nd order Douglas-Kroll-Hess (DKH2) and the nonrelativistic (NR-LL) (Lévy-Leblond) Hamiltonian.

The calculations at the level of Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian (DCH), 4-component spin-free Hamiltonian, nonrelativistic Lévy-Leblond Hamiltonian and at the level of simple Coulombic correction to DCH are presented. The potential curves are calculated in an all-electron supermolecular approach including the correction to basis set superposition error (BSSE).

The surface was obtained by the supermolecular method at the coupled cluster with single and double excitations and noniterative correction to triple excitations (CCSD(T)) level of theory. Our calculations indicate the van der Waals (vdW) system for the linear orientation at R=3.
