1 states are calculated by using the internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (icMRCI) method. In order to obtain the accurate potential energy curve, the errors caused by single and double electron excitation, core-valence correlation effects, relativistic effects and basis set truncation are corrected. The spectral and transition data of BH molecule are in good agreement with the available theoretical and experimental data. The calculation results show that the A

υ′ = 0-2,
J′ = 1, +) →
\textX^\text1\Sigma_\text0^ + ^ +

υ′′ = 0-2,
J′′ = 1, –) transition has large Einstein
A-coefficient, weighted absorption oscillator strength, and highly diagonal vibrational branching ratio
Rυ′υ′′, and the excited state A

υ′ = 0, 1) have short spontaneous radiation lifetimes. Moreover, the effects of

1 states on A
1Π
1(
υ′ = 0) ↔
\textX^\text1\Sigma_\text0^ + ^ +

J′ = 1, +) ↔
\textX^\text1\Sigma_\text0^ + ^ + 
(
υ′′ = 0-3,
J′′ = 1, –) cycle transition, we propose to apply one main cooling laser (
λ00 = 432.45 nm) and two repumping lasers (
λ10 = 479.67 nm and
λ21 = 481.40 nm) to laser cooling BH molecules, and evaluation of the cooling effect.
