The Interaction of Differently Excited Like Atoms at Large Distances
The Interaction of Differently Excited Like Atoms at Large Distances is a scholarly work, published in 1960 in ''Physical Review''. The main subjects of the publication include Valence electron, electron, wave function, physics, dipole, excited state, Atom, density functional theory, multipole expansion, computational chemistry, valence, atomic physics, London dispersion force, and molecular electronics. The theory of long-range first-order interaction energies is discussed for two like odd-electron atoms in different doublet states, for the case that spin-orbit coupling is smaller than the other splittings.
