Am. Frolov et Vh. Smith, THE CMP-INVARIANCE FOR SYMMETRICAL COULOMB 4-BODY SYSTEMS WITH UNIT CHARGES, Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 29(11), 1996, pp. 433-440
The bound state spectra in the symmetrical Coulomb four-body systems w
ith unit charges X(+)X(+)Y(-)Y(-) are considered. The total energy and
other properties for such systems depend only on the mass ratio s = m
(Y)/m(X). It is shown that there is an additional charge-mass-permutat
ion invariance in these systems. By applying this invariance we can de
termine the total energies for the systems with s greater than or equa
l to 1 if the energy dependence is known for s less than or equal to 1
, and vice versa. To produce quite accurate interpolation formulas for
the total energies we have made calculations for a number of exotic s
ystems, including Ps(2), p(+)p(+)mu(-)mu(-), d(+)d(+)pi(-)pi(-) and ei
ght others. For all these systems the variational results are the best
values to date; This is the first study based on numerical results of
bound state spectra for Coulomb four-body systems with unit charges.
