AbstractLiterature data on H/D isotope effects on polarizability are reviewed. An argument based on perturbation theory correlates the isotopic differences with electronic transition moments via vibrational averaging. The contribution of the second moment isotope effect is especially important. The approach is first illustrated with a calculation on H
