D0 corresponds to the first ionic state for the configurations (ππ*) (S2 and T1) and D1 corresponds to the first ionic state for the configuration (nπ*) (S1 and T2). Static denotes IE computed at selected geometries, Wigner denotes averaged IE (and standard deviations) computed for an ensemble of nuclear geometries sampled from the Wigner distribution at the given geometry. Dynamics denotes averaged IE (and standard deviations) computed at geometries extracted from surface hopping dynamics simulations. For details see Computational methods
