Molecular Pair Potential
The vibrational properties of a diatomic molecule can often be described by Mie's
pair potential 3:
U(r) = C
c[9₁-9]
(4)
where U(r) is the potential energy between the two atoms, r is the distance between
the two atoms, C, o are positive constants, and λ > 6 is a constant. The case with
X 12 is the Lennard-Jones potential and was covered in Lecture #2. For the
purposes of this problem, assume there is a mass ‘m’ that represents the dynamical
mass of the molecule. 4
