Why? Here's people who measured polarizability of O-3

doi:10.1016/0370-2693(91)90391-3 Beam physics people deal with things like Li+3 and B+4, that is, bare nucleus without any electrons. Particle physics, looking at cosmic rays, have found completely ionized iron nuclei. Astrophysics and stellar physics also deals with highly ionized nuclei. There's also things like http://www.physorg.com/news197123979.html points out > First experiments at the Linac Coherent Light Source stripped electrons one > by one from neon atoms (illustrated above) and nitrogen molecules, in some > cases removing only the innermost electrons to create "hollow atoms." > Even within the span of a single pulse there may be times when both inner > electrons are missing, creating a hollow atom that is transparent to X-rays, > Young said. meaning that there are different forms of neon with the same charge. These cases are well outside the chemistry that OpenBabel and InChI support. Andrew da...@dalkescientific.com
