Abstract

The theoretical technique for theoretical description of multiphoton processes¹ has been successfully used for the analysis of linear and nonlinear spectroscopical characteristics of one-electron alkali-like systems. As the examples of such systems, molecular Rydberg states can be considered. However, this theory should be modified when the dipole moment of the molecular core is taken into account. In this case, the analytical solution of Shrödinger equation for Coulomb + point dipole potential was obtained in work.² It is an important fact that, similar to the hydrogen-like case, this solution is characterized by the Coulomb radial wave function R_vq but these functions now depend on non-integer parameters v and q-principal and angular quantum numbers and angular momentum projection λ onto the molecular axis. See Refs. 2 and 3. This feature enables us to carry out the calculations by analogy with the case of spherically symmetric Rydberg states.
