Abstract

The intermediate coupling theory of Lee, Low and Pines is employed to calculate the ground state energy and the effective mass of a multidimensional optical polaron. The average number of virtual phonons in the cloud around the electron in the ground state is also calculated in this approximation. The dimensional scaling relations satisfied by these quantities are obtained.
