Molecular R-matrix calculations are performed on the astrophysically important e(-)-CH(+) system for internuclear separations in the range 1.5-4.0 a(0). The calculations are performed for both 2Pi and 2Sigma total symmetries. Several approximations, the most sophisticated being a polarized three-state close-coupling expansion, are employed. Many resonances below the CH(+) (a3Pi) threshold are resolved and classified using complex multichannel quantum defect theory. Scattering calculations with negative energy are used to obtain CH bound states. These yield a vertical ionization energy in good agreement with experiment and estimates of the excitation energy to several excited states of 2Pi and 2Sigma symmetry, including some that have not previously been considered.
