English The X²Σ1/2, A²Π1/2, B²Σ1/2, and A²Π3/2 states of Cs*Hen exciplexes, with n={3,…,9}, are studied using first principle density functional theory (DFT) formalism combined with the zeroth order regular approximation (ZORA). The zero points energies (ZPEs) E₀ for Cs*Hen are calculated at a first step, in order to estimate the stability of the studied exciplexes. Relativistic calculations are carried out including spin–orbit effect (SO), and potential energy surfaces of Cs*He6 are shown. The electronic distribution shapes of the studied molecules are also discussed, and their emission lines are evaluated and compared to a new discovered experimental emission spectra, which has been recently assigned, using a semi-empirical model, to Cs(AΠ1/2)He₇. Our first principle calculation suggests that the discovered emission line is most probably due to a decay of Cs(AΠ1/2)He₆.
