Abstract: | The 4s orbital of sulfur has been studied by semiempirical calculations on the H2S molecule. Overlap population, overlap energy, dipole moment, and oscillator strengths are computed as functions of the orbital exponent of the Slater type 4s orbital, with and without 3d orbitals. The 4s orbital contracts from what is expected for the free atom, but remains essentially Rydberg in character. |
