When making the Morse Potential graphs of diatomic molecules going through a transition, the excited state sometimes has a different equilibrium bond length. A visual example is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Franck-Condon-diagram.png
I was wondering how the average bond length of the excited state can be calculated ab-initio, or how it can be determined from spectroscopic data.
