Potential energy curves (PECs) of the symmetric and asymmetric bent S(2)O molecules are constructed using the configuration-based multireference second order perturbation theory and multireference configuration interaction with single and double excitations. Based on the PECs, the equilibrium structures of the ground state and several low-lying excited states, as well as the vertical and adiabatic transition energies, are obtained. Furthermore, avoided crossings and intersections displayed on the PECs are studied. The dissociation of states for the asymmetric bent S(2)O, especially the predissociative of the excited (~)C1A' state, is also discussed in detail. According to our calculations, the predissociation limit of (~)C1A' is found to be located in the vicinity of 2(6) or 2(5) (reckoning in the zero-point energy revision) S-S stretching vibration level, which is in good agreement with the available experimental data.
