A general expression is obtained for the leading long-range correction to the static interaction of a slowly moving charged or neutral system at a large distance from a spherically symmetric atom, and precise estimates are presented of the magnitude for the systems H, He (1¹S,2¹S, and 2³S), Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Li⁺ (1¹S,2¹S, and 2³S), Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, H₂, N₂, and CH₄.
