Abstract
The endohedral fullerene He@C60 is potentially responsible for unident ified infrared bands in molecular clouds. In this species overlap effe cts induce a small dipole moment. We have computed the induced dipole and endohedral potential using self-consistent field Hartree-Fock theo ry. Using these results we have calculated the far-infrared absorption spectrum. This consists of a strong fundamental band at 100-200 cm-1, and a weaker third harmonic at 375-600 cm-1.
