Abstract
Accurate theoretical spectroscopic constants and potential energy curves are obtained for the ground state ${\rm X}$ 1 $\Sigma^{+}$ and the low-lying electronic states ${\rm A}$ 1 $\Pi$ , a $^3\Pi$ and b $^3\Sigma^{+}$ of AlI molecule. The calculated values of Te, $\omega$ e and re of the first three states are compatible with the experimental results. An ordering of states is represented for the lowest predicted singlet and triplet states. These results provide a big support to determine the analogy in the ordering of electronic states in AlF, AlCl, AlBr and AlI respectively at lower energies. These theoretical results characterize a set of electronic singlet and triplet states and identify for the first time the unobserved electronic state b $^3\Sigma^{+}$ .
