Abstract
The solvent-averaged polarization energy of a system of 351 polarizable particles with two ions (charged hard-spheres) at the centre was computed for different separations of the ions. The polarization energy for each configuration was computed with a Padé Approximant method which is suitable for a Monte Carlo simulation. Due to the solvent-averaged polarization energy, ions of the same sign experience an attraction and ions of opposite sign a repulsion; this effect increases with the reduced polarizability α* and it can overcome the Coulomb interaction if α* is large, in contrast to the dielectric screening model.
