Abstract

It is shown that the reduced potential energy curve for a diatomic molecule and its cation are nearly identical, particularly near the minimum, implying that the force constant in reduced variables is nearly the same for the two species. An explanation is given in terms of scaling of the valence-electron wavefunction with respect to the nuclear coordinates.
