We present numerical results for the dipole induced by interactions between a hydrogen molecule and a hydrogen atom, obtained from finite-field calculations in an aug-cc-pV5Z basis at the unrestricted coupled-cluster level including all single and double excitations in the exponential operator applied to a restricted Hartree–Fock reference state, with the triple excitations treated perturbatively, i.e., UCCSD(T) level. The Cartesian components of the dipole have been computed for nine different bond lengths r of H2 ranging from 0.942 a.u. to 2.801 a.u., for 16 different separations R between the centers of mass of H2 and H between 3.0 a.u. and 10.0 a.u., and for 19 angles θ between the H2 bond vector r and the vector R from the H2 center of mass to the nucleus of the H atom, ranging from 0° to 90° in intervals of 5°. We have expanded the interaction-induced dipole as a series in the spherical harmonics of the orientation angles of the H2 bond axis and of the intermolecular vector, with coefficients DλL(r, R). For the geometrical configurations that we have studied in this work, the most important coefficients DλL(r, R) in the series expansion are D01(r, R), D21(r, R), D23(r, R), D43(r, R), and D45(r, R). We show that the ab initio results for D23(r, R) and D45(r, R) converge to the classical induction forms at large R. The convergence of D45(r, R) to the hexadecapolar induction form is demonstrated for the first time. Close agreement between the long-range ab initio values of D01(r0 = 1.449 a.u., R) and the known analytical values due to van der Waals dispersion and back induction is also demonstrated for the first time. At shorter range, D01(r, R) characterizes isotropic overlap and exchange effects, as well as dispersion. The coefficients D21(r, R) and D43(r, R) represent anisotropic overlap effects. Our results for the DλL(r, R) coefficients are useful for calculations of the line shapes for collision-induced absorption and collision-induced emission in the infrared and far-infrared by gas mixtures containing both H2 molecules and H atoms.
