Higher-order long-range interactions between rare gas and hydrogen atoms

Abstract

Theoretical values for the multipole polarizabilities and like atom van der Waals coefficients C₆, C₈, and C₁₀ are used with the Kramer‐Herschbach combination rules to calculate C₈ and C₁₀ for unlike atoms in the set (H, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe). It is argued that in most cases these values are the most accurate available and should be good to ∼±10%.
