Abstract
We study doubly excited 1,3Se, 1,3Po, and 1,3De resonances in He below the n=2 He+ threshold by the saddle-point complex-rotation method with B-spline functions. We calculated 78 resonances. Recently, accurate measurements on the 1Po have been performed, which allow detailed comparisons with our ab initio theoretical results. For 1Po, we calculate six members in the 2(0,1)n+(2<~n<~7) series, five members in the 2(1,0)n−(3<~n<~7) series, and four members in the 2(−1,0)n0(3<~n<~6) series. The resonance energies and widths are compared with accurate experimental and theoretical results. The agreement is good. For other symmetries, the energies and widths are also calculated up to n≅7, and are also in good agreement with available experimental and theoretical results.
