Title: The noble gas dimers as a probe of the energetic contributions of dispersion and short-range electron correlation in weakly bound systems.
Authors: Housden, M. P.1, Pyper, N. C.1 ncp1@cus.cam.ac.uk
Source: Molecular Physics. 9/10/2007, Vol. 105 Issue 17/18, p2353-2361. 9p. 5 Charts, 2 Graphs.
Subjects: Noble gases, Binding sites, Hartree-Fock approximation, Approximation theory, Energy-band theory of solids, Molecular dynamics
Abstract: The binding of the noble gas dimers is examined using a theory in which the Hartree-Fock interaction energy is augmented with both a short-range correlation term derived from the theory of a uniform electron-gas plus a dispersion energy damped according to the theory of Jabobi and Csanak. The good agreement between the predicted and experimental binding energies and equilibrium inter-nuclear separations confirms that this approach captures the essential physics of the interaction. A review of other methods confirms the previously reported failures of density functional theory. A further survey shows that fully ab initio variational methods must be taken to the very refined level of coupled cluster theory with a large quadruple or quintuple zeta basis set if they are to achieve greater accuracy than the approach presented here.
