Application of quantum Chemistry to Atmospheric Chemistry.
Abstract
The polarizabilities of ionic states of atoms are quantities of importance in the determination of long range forces between atoms where either excited states are present which are ionic in character or which exhibit a large degree of charge transfer. The electric dipole polarizability represents the major interaction of a static electric field with an atom or ion. A considerable number of methods have beem proposed and applied to the calculation of atomic polarizabilities. These range from the solution of the perturbation equations describing the influence of the field on the atoms to very complete variational methods with large numbers of configurations. (Author)
