High-level ab initio calculations on the complexes between noble gas atoms (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) and dihalogen molecules (F-2, Cl-2, Br-2, and I-2) reveal trends, both in interaction energies and the energy difference between the linear and T-shaped structures, that can be explained well in terms of dispersion interactions enhanced by polar flattening of the halogens. The partial discrepancies with experimental findings are discussed.
