It was found that all states in the energy range from 0 to 50000 cm-1 are of valence character. Particular attention was paid to the investigation of the dissociative behavior of the states considered. The vibrational structure of the AIP<-XIS and BIS+<-XIS+ spectral systems was calculated. %K electronic spectrum %K ab initio calculations %K valence - Rydberg interaction %U http://www.shd.org.yu/HtDocs/SHD/Vol64/No12-Pdf/V64-No12-01.zip
