Abstract:
Recently developed multibox approach [A.M. Frolov, Phys. Rev. E 64, 036704 (2001)] is used to construct highly accurate, bound state wave functions for the ground states in the heavy adiabatic ions DT+ and T(2)+. The computed variational energies and bound state properties have significantly higher accuracy than results known from earlier computations. Nevertheless, the computed and predicted nucleus-nucleus cusp and nucleus-nucleus delta function differ significantly even for the highly accurate wave functions used in this study.

Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
