Abstract
The wave function for the ground electron state in a dipole field is obtained based on the variational method. This function allows all the specific features of the examined system to be considered, for example, the impossibility of electron localization on the negative dipole charge. This function is expected to have good accuracy when the dipole moment D ≥ 3a 0 e, where a 0 is the Bohr radius and e is the electron charge.
