The research has had significant impact upon development of variational vibration-rotation analysis for small polyatomic molecules. Almost singlehandedly developed the numerical techniques, wrote the computer programs, calibarted them to well known molecules and demonstrated that indeed very useful for H3+ studies. Provides first accurate predictions for vibration-rotation properties of H3+ and its isotopic variants. Subsequent workers with more compter power added additional significant figures of accuracy but little else. Developed potential surface, dipolr surface, anharmonic vibrational solution to nuclear motion and rotation properties along with transition intensities.

The research has had significant impact upon development of variational vibration-rotation analysis for small polyatomic molecules. Almost singlehandedly developed the numerical techniques, wrote the computer programs, calibrated them to well known molecules and demonstrated that indeed very useful for H3+ studies. Provides first accurate predictions for vibration-rotation properties of H3+ and its isotopic variants. Subsequent workers with more computer power added additional significant figures to improve accuracy somewhat. Calculate accurate potential surface, dipole surface, anharmonic vibrational solution to nuclear motion vibration and rotation properties along with transition intensities. Developed several independent model computational systems to access reliability of at that experimentally untested results. Many other experimental and theoretical workers have subsequently confirmed the success achieved by Carney in theoretical vibration-rotation spectroscopy.
