ResumoEnergy levels for valence and Rydberg states are calculated for H2, N2, and O2. An independent particle model (IPM) with an effective one-electron potential whose nuclear charge depends on the electron position is utilized to approximate the Coulomb and exchange interactions. An analytical generalization of the potential parameters to reflect a change in internuclear separation yields accurate average molecular potential energy curves E(R) when experimental ion energies E+(R) are added to IPM molecular orbital energies ε(R), viz., E(R)=E+(R)+ε(R). A convergence formula for incrementing the energy in the numerical integration procedure is presented.
