Summary
In this lecture is described a new type of cohesive force between molecules. The fondamental idea is the use of a quantum mechanical description.
Many applications are illustrated and in particular, those who interest intermolecular forces in liquids and molecular crystals and elettrical spectroscopic properties of solution and crystals.
Riassunto
Viene descritto un nuovo tipo di forza di coesione tra molecole, dovuto a trasferimento intermolecolare di cariche. L’idea fondamentale viene sviluppata secondo la meccanica quantistica con un formalismo matematico particolarmente semplice, che tuttavia porta a risultati notevolissimi. Si esaminano in dettaglio alcuni casi e si accenna ad applicazioni del metodo allo studio dei liquidi e dei cristalli molecolari, e dette proprietà elettriche e spettroscopiche di soluzioni e cristalli.
