The authors discuss the nature of deformation of the electron charge cloud of an ion implied in the deformable shell model and considers an application of the model to the case of LiF crystals. It is found that the properties of the crystal are fairly well reproduced by the present model and certain discrepancies noted by earlier authors are removed. The results of other theoretical investigations are also included for comparison.
