Abstract

The 1sns 3Se Rydberg series in a two-electron system with the charge of the nucleus, Z1, is treated by means of the quantum-defect theory. Comparison with configuration interaction calculations suggests that the quantum-defect expression for the energy levels becomes asymptotically exact as Z→1. This provides an analytic description of the disappearance of the 1sns 3Se bound states when Z approaches the critical value of 1.
