Abstract

Nonadditivity of the exchange repulsion for three neon atoms in the equilateral triangle configuration has been calculated in the first-order of the symmetry adapted perturbation theory. The relative nonadditive contribution to the first-order interaction energy has been found to be about twice as small as in the helium trimer. The many-orbital cluster partition of the exchange nonadditivity has been derived. It has been found that in the region of the van der Waals minimum about 95% of the exchange nonadditivity originates from the interaction of the L-shell electrons only. The five-orbital terms as well as terms of an order-higher than S3 have been found to be negligible. Approximate formulae for evaluation of the exchange repulsion nonadditivity has been proposed and discussed.
