Abstract

Very often only “diagonal” second order energies, varying as an even power of R^−1^, occur in the multipole expansion of the interaction energy. However for many molecular interactions important “nondiagonal” second order energies, varying as an odd or even power of R^−1^ can arise. This point is emphasized by a general discussion and by a detailed specific example, the interaction of an ionized dipolar molecule with a nondegenerate atom. Also some useful theorems, on the orientation average of various types of second order energies, are derived.
