“…If a free system has bonded states (as is the case when λ > 0 in the above problems), energy levels E nᐉ (λ, R) are monotonically reduced as R rises, tending to corresponding limits E nᐉ (λ, ∞). For a wide range of systems, this convergence is exponential [1,3,4,29,30]; matrix elements [3,4,8]. From relations (4), (5), it is easy to find that (10) (11) Oscillator strengths in particular do not depend on λ for a free system.…”
