Ok, so nobody's perfect!
I've tried to acknowledge below those ever-vigilant readers
who've pointed out errors; look for this type size.
Errata (for papers I have published)
2000
An overview of microscopic Casimir forces,
J. F. Babb,
Comm. At. Mol. Phys. vol. 1 (2000), part D,
pp. 191-199.
Title as printed: replace "force" with "forces"
p. 192, Eq. (3): in the numerator, replace one "A" with "B"
p. 193, Eq. (8): should read
αA (ω) EB → A(ω,R) Eb(ω)
p. 197, 10th line from bottom: replace "present" with "presents"
1997
Long range interactions of sodium atoms, P. Kharchenko,
J. F. Babb, and A. Dalgarno,
Phys. Rev. A, vol. 55 (1997), pp. 3566-3572.
p. 3569, table II: Some of the exponents given
are wrong, corrected values are given below.
("o.k." denotes that the published value is correct):
| R/a0 | F6 |
F3 | |
| 1.5[4] | o.k. | 9.193[-2] |
| 2.0[4] | o.k. | 6.957[-2] |
| 2.5[4] | o.k. | 5.590[-2] |
| 3.0[4] | o.k. | 4.670[-2] |
| 7.0[4] | 6.056[-2] | 2.011[-2] |
| 1.0[5] | 4.247[-2] | 1.408[-2] |
| 1.0[6] | o.k. | o.k. |

1994
Effective oscillator strengths and
transition energies for the hydrogen molecular ion, James F. Babb,
Molec. Phys., vol. 81 (1994), pp. 17-29
p. 17, eq.(3): The subscript "1" on the LHS should read "i"
p. 22, eq.(20): Interchange the subscripts "1" and "i" on the RHS.
p. 22, eq.(22): Interchange the subscripts "1" and "i" on the RHS.
p. 27, table 9: The first line of the table should read
| H2+ | H2+ |
1.40520 | 0.60380 | 0.60380 | 0.27625 |
3.2836 |
Present, Rc=2.0a0 |
A tip of the hat to Valerio Magnasco and Massimo Ottonelli, Chem. Phys. Letters, vol. 259 (1996) pp. 307-312.
p. 28, Ref.[28]: "Bokowski" should read "Bukowski"
1993
Continuum absorption of
vibrationally excited O2 from 200-320 nm,
J. F. Babb, Y. Sun, M. J. Jamieson, A. Dalgarno, and
A. C. Allison, J. Quant. Spect. Rad. Transfer, vol. 50 (1993),
pp. 579-583; Correction, ibid., vol. 51 (1994) p. 787.
In equation (3) there
is a typo: the factor of ten should be 10-23 not
10-30.

Hyun-Kyung Chung for pointing this error out.
