Table 1 Orbital composition analysis for the ground \({{\rm{X}}}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}\) and lowest lying electronic \({{\rm{A}}}^{2}\Pi\) and \({{\rm{B}}}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}\) states of the SrOH molecule. For each of the three molecular states columns correspond to amplitudes of the \(s\), \(p\), and \(d\) valence orbitals of the strontium cation (Sr-s, Sr-p, Sr-d), the s valence orbital of oxygen (O-s), and the s orbital of hydrogen (H-s).
