A COMPARISON OF RliZSULTS OBTAINED BY DKFFEREWZ MmODS R. BLOCK, R. R&L
and G. TER MATEN
ReQived 14 September 1971
~i~u~t~~ns of tree-~dy ~ntera~~onsbetween atoms on the b&sol the Hs-modei and the Eel-model were carried out in first order of exchangep~t~bation theory, using Shter fut dons. Comparison with &n&z C&Z& tions withgaussian functions shows that they are essentially the Same. Re mt rentIts obtained with the SCF LCAO MO approximation are quite comparablewith those offirsf.order perturbation tbeery.
turbation theory reported in the literature have started from gaussian ground-state functions far the system of three atoms. We have repeated these calculations in first order, using Slater functions in the Hsmodel, quartet state. As regards (ii), we have compared firstorder results in the H,- and He,-models, again using Sbtter functions. To obtain an impre~ion regarding (iii), we have compared our resuIts with those published recently by Bader et al. [6) with the SCF LCAO MO approximation. The system of refer* ence is in a! cases that of three atoms, forming an isosceies trkngie with opening angle 8 at the central atom. The two equal sides of the triangle have length R, measurkd in atomic units.
t . Introduction
Renewed interest has recently arisen concerning the importace of non-adding, ~tera~tions between closed-shell atoms or ions [l-6], e.g., in connection with crystal stability [ 1,2], third vi&i coefficients [4] and elastic &nstaots of ionic solids [7]. These anaIyses are based on exchange perturbation theory [1,2,7], perturbation expansions in the region of small overlap [3,4], or on the SCF LCAO MO ape proximatioh [6]. The systems studied were three closed-shell at+ or ions, in a one- or two-effect&e electron fper atom) model &-model, quartet State and Heg-model, singlet state, respectively), for differ= ent geometricaf confiurations. Since discrepancies have arisen‘in the literature regarding the order of 2.

A = atitf2 p (equating the expectation values of r2 gives K = 2”2fl). with 2.0 G’pR < 3.4 as determined’. in ref. [l] for rare-gas solids (R is the nearest-neighb,our,djstauce) we have 2.7 < M 4 4S for such sys terns.
Consider now k triplet (A, B, Cl ofatoms, with in total three effective electrons 1,2,3.. The proundstate Gavefunctions for the atoms are denoted by da(l), @u(2)aud tit(3), respectively. Let H' be the
perturbation hamiltonian for this system and P the projection operator for three parallel spins (P belongs. to the [l? ] -representation of the permutation group
S,). With the notation $ = $I,( l)dn(2)@&3), it can be shown [S,9] that in good approximation the firstorder perturbation energy is given by: q=

The fust-order perturbation energy for the pair of atoms (A, B) is obtained by removing atom C to infinity, and similarly for the other pairs. The sum of these pair interactions is denoted by E$O);the relative three-body component is then simply AE,/tiT)
