Comment on: Breakdown of Bohr's Correspondence Principle by: Bo Gao Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 4225 (1999)
Abstract
Gao applied LeRoy and Bernstein semi-classical analysis for the energy levels in a potential of the form -C/rn to sequences of scaled energy differences progressing towards low lying states and found a better agreement with the semi-classical prediction. We checked that for the energy levels obtained by Stwalley et al. with the same potential, the agreement with the semi-classical approximation is better for higher vibrational quantum numbers in agreement with Bohr's correspondence principle.
