Screening effect of the coulomb interaction on the energy levels of atomic and molecular systems

The energies of atomic and molecular systems with a screened Coulomb interaction are expressed in terms of properties of the system with a conventional Coulomb interaction to the third order in the screening constant. The energy levels of an H atom, an H^? ion, and nonadiabatic systems, namely, the positronium ion e ⁺ e ^? e ^? and the positronium molecule e ⁺ e ⁺ e ^? e ^?, are calculated for screened Coulomb interactions of charged particles. It is demonstrated that, as the screening constant of the Coulomb interaction increases, the stability of the hydrogen atom, the H^? ion, and the positronium molecule e ⁺ e ⁺ e ^? e ^? decreases, whereas the stability of the positronium ion e ⁺ e ^? e ^? increases after a slight decrease.
