Interatomic potentials

Book ·
OSTI ID:4383162
The topics discussed are the nature of interatomic forces, theoretical models of the atom, interatomicc potentials based on Thomas- Fermi theory, empirical interatomic potentials, pseudopotential theory, pair potentials based on pseudopotential theory, atomic collision theory and interatomic potentials, experiments on the scattering of atoms and ions, liquid metal pair interaction potentials, the application of interatomic potentials. Also the Thomas- Fermi screening function, Hartree dielectric screening of the pseudopotential, the cohesion of ionic crystals, interatomic potentials derived from planar channeling data are covered.
