Summary of polarizabilities...



 Dear netters,
 A few days ago I posted a question on ionic polarizabilities. The original
 message was:
  ............................................................................
 Dear All:
 I need to know if there is any experimental (or good theoretical)
 determination of the polarizability of ions in ionic crystals.
 Specifically, I would like to know the polarizabilities of the
 following anions:
 F- Cl- Br- I- O-- S-- Se-- Te--
 and of the following cations:
 Li+ Na+ K+ Rb+ Cs+ Be++ Mg++ Ca++ Sr++ Ba++
 in the stoichiometric crystals like LiCl or MgO (all possible
 combinations), and in the "nonstoichiometric" crystals like
 MgF_2 or Li_2O (also all the known combinations). I would like
 to know also the polarizabilities of these ions in the
 diatomic molecules.
 Any help will be very appreciated. Of course, I will make a
 summary of all the responses received. Thank in advance!!

 Thanks to all the people who responded!!! Below I give a list of references
 on the subject:
 Int.J.Quantum Chem.Quantum.Chem.Symp.29 (1995) 523
 Chem.Phys. 59(1981) 341
 van Dujen & Swart,J.Phys.Chem., in press
 See the many papers by Pyper, Madden and Fowler.  A recent one, from which
 many previous papers can be traced, is J. Phys. Condens. Matter 9, 471.
 Have a look at: P. C. Schmidt, A. Weiss, T. P. Das Phys.Rev.B. 1979, 19, 5525.

 David Feller, email:d3e102(-(at)-)emsl.pnl.gov, has calculated recently the
 polarizabilities of Li+,Na+,K+,Rb+,Cs+,Mg2+,Ca2+,Sr2+,and Ba2+ cations with
 MP ab initio methods. His results are near the complete basis set limit.
 Contact him if you are interested.
