Uploaded by E.S. Medvedev, 14 March 2018 This is a preliminary version of the paper by V.V. Meshkov, A.V. Stolyarov, A.Yu. Ermilov, E.S. Medvedev, V.G. Ushakov, and I.E. Gordon, "Semi-empirical ground-state potential of carbon monoxide with physical behavior in the limits of small and large interatomic separations" to be submitted to J. Chem. Phys. (in preparation). During the work, several versions of the model potential were created denoted as U1, U2, etc. Here, U5 is presented, with which calculations were performed in the paper by E.S. Medvedev and V.G. Ushakov, "High sensitivity of the anomalies in the rotational and ro-vibrational bands of carbon monoxide to small changes in the molecular potential and dipole moment" (2018, submitted to J. Chem. Phys.).
