Abstract: | The interatomic potentials in a system consisting of a halogen atom in the ground state and an inert gas atom are calculated
by the effective pseudopotential method with a new form of the polarization interaction potential found by calculating the
most important polarization diagrams of perturbation theory in the Thomas-Fermi approximation. The results of these calculations
of the quasi-molecular terms of this van der Waals system refine available data; some are obtained for the first time. The
available experimental and theoretical data are compared.
