Abstract
We present third-order many-body perturbation theory calculations of t he Lennard-Jones C-3 coefficient for the alkali-metal atoms lithium, s odium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. All-order singles-do ubles calculations of C-3 are also presented for lithium, sodium, and potassium. For lithium and sodium the present values of C-3 are compar ed with other theoretical and semiempirical values.
