Quadrupole-bound anions: efficacy of positive versus negative quadrupole moments
1Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee 37996, USA. wrg@utk.edu
Abstract:
A pseudopotential method is utilized to study the critical stability of model anions formed by long-range quadrupolar molecular potentials. Results indicate that critical quadrupole moments of simple point-charge triads do not serve well as predictors of real quadrupole-bound anions of systems with negative moments.
