What is Quantum-mechanical Model Relating Negative-ion Polarizabilities in Free Space and in an Ionic Crystal about?

Earlier Wilson and Curtis used a classical model of a compressible conducting sphere to relate the free-negative-ion polarizability a o 2 to that a 2 of the negative ion in a crystal ®eld, such as in an alkali-halide lattice. Here the adjustable parameter in the Wilson±Curtis model is interpreted in terms of quantum-mechanical expectation values of a single anion in free space together with a factor containing ®ngerprints of the crystal structure (e.g. NaCl or CsCl). The quantum-mechanical valence-electron rescaling framework should then also be useful for other purposes, e.g. to treat dynamic polarizabilities in a comparatively simple manner.
