Abstract
The energies of an electron above a liquid-helium surface are analyzed in terms of an electron-atom polarizability potential with an infinite barrier. An integration over a layer, and a summation over different layers, leads to a one-dimensional Coulomb potential with a 1/x 2 correction. This potential provides an accurate description of the observed one-dimensional Rydberg energies with a quantum defect.
