Abstract

Recent high-precision experiments by the HD beam magnetic resonance method gave a formula for calculating nuclear quadrupole coupling constants more accurately than former experiments and also more precisely than the experimental value of the pure deuterium molecule. At present, the most accurate value of the quadrupole moment of the deuteron (error 4%) evaluated through the electromagnetic interaction is considered as based upon the theoretical calculation of q obtained by the use of Newell's variational function. A refinement of Newell's method was made which appears to yield an error of only 0.6%. (A.C.)
