Atomic and Molecular Polarizabilities

Density functional theory (DFT) [1,2] is widely applied to evaluate atomic and molecular polarizabilities. The interested reader may consult, for instance, excellent... 

The static dipole polarizability is the linear response of an atomic or molecular system to the application of a weak static electric field [1], It relates to a great variety of physical properties and phenomena [2-5]. Because of its importance, there have been numerous ab initio calculations of isolated atomic and molecular polarizabilities [6-14]. Particular theoretical attention has been dedicated to the polarizability of free atomic anions [15-21] because of its fragility and difficulty in obtaining direct experimental results. In recent years theoretical studies have...

Phenomenological evaluation [85,86] using atomic and molecular polarizabilities and the permanent dipole moment of water suggests that under the condition of the experiment, which involve water at high rotational temperature, the long range attraction is accounted for more than 90% by dispersion forces, while induction contributions play a minor role.
