Dispersion forces
Abstract
The interaction energy between two atoms is calculated including radiative corrections. It is shown that the interaction energy can be expressed in terms of the frequency-dependent polarizability and this leads to some simple approximate methods for the calculation of this energy. Magnetic dipole terms are also included and these terms are found to give a difference in the dispersion energy between two optically active molecules depending on whether they have identical or mirror image configurations. They may also be important for molecules with low-lying magnetic excited states.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
