“…CONCLUSIONS In 2001, Shimizu et al [45] obtained a large devia tion from the Cauchy relation δ for solid argon in the pressure range up to 70 GPa. These measurements confirmed the fact that the interatomic interaction in fcc rare gas crystals cannot be described in the frame work of any models of two body interaction potentials with the central interatomic interaction [32]. Accord ing to Iitaka and Ebisuzaki [14], the large deviation from the Cauchy relation for solid argon implies that "the contribution of the non central many body force becomes more and more important at higher pres sures, and it cannot be treated any more as a small cor rection to the two body potentials.…”

“…In our investigations of the elastic properties of rare gas crystals under pressure with the inclusion of the three body forces and deformation of the electron shells, it was shown that these effects make a small contribution to the elastic moduli, which can be fairly well described by the effective pair potential [32]; i.e., the three body interaction on the background of the pair interaction still remains small even at high pres sures.…”

“…For example, for the wave vector k directed along the [001] direction, their contributions to the frequen cies and , according to formula (29) [34], are equal respectively to (29) The signs of t 1 and t 3 can be estimated using the Schwarz inequality. By introducing the vectors X, Y, and Z with the components (30) we find (31) For the quantity (32) the sign remains unknown. However, using the geo metrical representation, we obtain (33) and, since the geometric mean does not exceed the arithmetic mean, we have Thus, in the considered example of the frequencies Ω L and Ω T for the [001] direction, the three body forces act in the same direction as the electronphonon forces, thus decreasing the frequencies of short wavelength phonons.…”

“…Thus, the performed analysis of calculations of the phonon frequencies and elastic moduli (see [32] and references therein) of a strained crystal showed that the interatomic potential taking into account the three body interaction and the deformation of the electron shells of atoms reflects all the essential fea tures of the behavior of rare gas crystals under pres sure.…”

Ab initio calculations of phonon frequencies of compressed rare gas crystals have been performed taking into account the many body interaction in the model of deformable atoms. In the short range repul sive potential, along with the previously considered three body interaction associated with the overlap of the electron shells of atoms, the three body forces generated by the mutual deformation of the electron shells of the nearest neighbor atoms have been investigated in the dipole approximation. The relevant forces make no contribution to the elastic moduli but affect the equation for lattice vibrations. At high compressions, the soft ening of the longitudinal mode at the points L and X is observed for all the rare gas crystals, whereas the trans verse mode T 1 is softened in the direction Σ and at the point L for solid xenon. This effect is enhanced by the three body forces. There is a good agreement between the theoretical phonon frequencies and the experi mental values at zero pressure.

The quantum-mechanical model of deformable and polarizable atoms has been developed for the purpose of investigating the elastic properties of crystals of rare gases Ne, Kr, and Xe over a wide range of pressures. The inclusion of the deformable electron shells in the analysis is particularly important for the shear moduli of heavy rare-gas crystals. It has been shown that the observed deviation from the Cauchy relation d(p) for Kr and Xe cannot be adequately reproduced when considering only the many-body interaction. The individual dependence d(p) for each of the rare-gas crystals is the result of two competitive interactions, namely, the many-body and electron-phonon interactions, which manifests itself in a quadrupole deformation of the electron shells of the atoms due to displacements of the nuclei. The contributions of these interactions in Ne, Kr, and Xe are compensated with good accuracy, which provides a weakly pressure-dependent value for the parameter d. The ab initio calculated dependences d(p) for the entire series Ne-Xe are in good agreement with the experiment.
